New airport lounge on track for November opening
19.06.09
The first phase of a £40m redevelopment of the terminal at Edinburgh Airport will be ready to open in before the end of the year. The new-look departure lounge, offering more shops, bars and restaurants, will open in November, with the entire project set to be completed by early 2011.
The 5000-square-metre development includes a major expansion of the departure lounge, offering more space for passengers to relax, as well as a wider choice of shops, bars and restaurants. It also includes a new purpose-built security search area, with the capacity for 14 X-ray machines, which will be the final stage of the project to be completed and speed up security measures for passengers.
About 200 jobs in the retail and construction sectors are being supported or will created as a result of the development, the airport said.
