虹桥机场1号航站楼将启动大规模改造   2014-10-31

 

THE Terminal 1 building at Shanghai’s Hongqiao International Airport is set to undergo its largest renovation since opening in 1921, authorities said yesterday.

The main aim of the project, set to start before the end of the year, is to provide a better experience for people using the airport, Li Derun, president of the Shanghai Airport Authority, told a press conference.

An expansion of the floor area by almost 40 percent will make it much easier for passengers arriving by taxi or on the Metro, while the higher ceilings will give the terminal a roomier and more welcoming feel, he said.
