New Bournemouth Airport arrivals area opened
29.05.11
The multi-million pound transformation at Bournemouth Airport has moved a step closer to completion, after passengers took their first steps through the new eco-friendly arrivals terminal on Thursday. Holidaymakers arriving back from Palma on a Thomson flight were the first to step through the doors of the building – designed to be completely carbon-neutral.
The new facility is part of a £45million redevelopment programme at the airport, with the whole project including landscaping due to be finished by the end of the summer – on time and on budget. Two lucky passengers, Trish and Jerry Bamforth, were picked by Thomson staff to officially open the new building.
Rob Goldsmith, managing director at Bournemouth Airport said: ‘We’re all delighted with our new arrivals building – it’s a big improvement on what we used up until now. And the fact that this is the first carbon neutral terminal in Europe makes it even more impressive.’
