		"Once operational, the impressive EGP 3.1 billion new TB3 (Terminal Building 3) will be one of the largest terminals in North Africa doubling our current airport's passenger capacity." Said H.E. Ahmad Shafik, Minister of Civil Aviation .
		Terminal 3 comprises a main building with two symmetrical concourses, or "wings," and totals 211,000 m2 in floor area with the ancillary services. The structures are unified with each other as well as the existing terminal 2 via skywalk bridges.

		The new Terminal's design will help EgyptAir and its Alliance partners reduce transfer time between flights to just 45 minutes, regardless of whether the transfers are domestic, international, or a mix of the two and with different Alliance partners.
		The terminal is equipped with the latest state-of-the-art technology including self-service kiosks (CUSS) in the check-in hall, biometric immigration and fully automated baggage-handling system with integrated online screening. This is in addition to information kiosks, strategically placed throughout the building. Thus, the New IT system will ensure an efficient and cost-effective operation.
		Terminal 3 will revolutionalize duty-free shopping in Egypt. With close to 4,000 m2 of retail space, the shops offer passengers both popular international brands and introduce exclusive brands new to the Egyptian. The new Terminal will also include food and beverage areas with local and international brands.
		It's expected that a total of 1,000 new employees will be hired to staff the new Terminal. Intensive training programs have been designed and tailored to train the new staff in both their own job functions and customer service methods, as well as to familiarize them with general knowledge of the airport's operations, processes, organizations, strategy and mission.

A fully automated Baggage Handling System with integrated inline screening will ensure safe and smooth operation of the baggage. The integrated Security System fulfills latest international requirements and sets new standards within the region.

Biometric Border Control

We are also looking at a biometric border passage system, which is still being discussed with the relevant authorities and would be a first for an airport in Egypt. A number of state of the art technologies are being implemented at the airport including CUSS Self-service check-in kiosks and Info kiosks.

The Info-Kiosk will provide the user with access to a wide range of different information and information sources such as frequently asked questions, telephone directories, local accommodation, transportation, business facilities, rent a car, conference facilities, information on Retail and F&B facilities on airport , an airport map, parking, and links to most important web sites. All this will be in the form of a touch screen technology that can easily be understood by our travelers as well as the “Meeters and Greeters”.
