With comprehensive modern infrastructure, terminal T1 was built in an area of 8,100 square metres, tripling the area of the old one. It is expected to help bring better experiences to passengers and improve four-star services and products of the national flag carrier.
Additional two check-in counters have been installed at the new terminal, increasing the total number to eight.
Meanwhile, the 300 square-metre waiting lounge is arranged on the second floor of the terminal, which can accommodate 80 golden lotus members and business-class passengers.
