Belfast International Airport has launched the first phase of its £100 million five-year investment program, consolidating itself further as a cornerstone of the VINCI network.
The First Phase
The opening phase of the airport’s five-year plan, comes in the form of a £25 million investment to improve customer experience with terminal upgrades. Now open, is a 1,600 m² duty-free store, in an effort to integrate the shopping, dining and travel essential experience into a modern, passenger-friendly space.
Along with this, there is a new state of the art Security Hall. Featuring a new spacious layout, and more advanced scanning tech, the investment will help usher in a new age of efficiency and convenience. Notably, the new security apparatus will eliminate the need to separate liquids and electronics from hand luggage.
Development Significance
With plans for further investment over the next three years, this initial investment solidifies the Northern Irish airline’s intention and commitment to modernising their infrastructure. What must also not be understated, is the impact Belfast International plays in regional tourism and the regional economy.
Belfast International Airport Chief Executive, Dan Owens reinforces the significance:
“When we started this process around two years ago, we were focused on our goal to transform the passenger experience at Belfast International Airport. Today we can say we have made significant progress in achieving that goal. We provide employment for over 4000 people connecting almost 7 million passengers across our airline network. As the economic driver for this region in terms of economic development and tourism growth we are committed to further enhancing the passenger experience while also working with our airline partners to develop our network of routes.”
