6.4.3.4 EIA 2030 to 2035 (+16 MAP)
The 16 million annual passenger configurations
represent the maximum sustainable capacity for
the existing three-runway layout based on the
customer traffic mix. Future terminal passenger
capacity enhancements can be achieved through
the inclusion of larger aircraft in the traffic mix and/
or increasing gate utilization rates. By 2035, EIA
expects to process 13.1 million annual passengers.
For terminal expansion, for the 16 MAP horizon,
the southeastern pier is designed to accommodate
five additional code C positions, for a total of 19.
The north end is designed to service the domestic
sector, with seven code C bridged positions, and
access to seven ground-loaded (remote) positions.
The relocation of transborder check-ins, including
the traditional electronic and baggage drop
systems, is assumed for the 16 million annual
passenger mark. Total area requirements for
transborder departures, including check-in,
passenger screening and USCBP facilities, are
approximately 1,200 square metres.
Additions to the terminal piers include an extension
to the south pier finger extension at the south end
of the terminal, expansion of gate positions near
the ATC tower, and a new pier at the north end of
the terminal, east of the 12 million annual passenger
pier addition. The addition of a pier finger and pier
satellite extending from the northeast side of the
existing air terminal building is planned. The pier
satellite at the end of the extension is designed
to maximize apron space and passenger loading
areas, as shown in Exhibit 6.24.

6.4.3.5 Summary
All enhancements are designed to create a greater
flexibility within the terminal, increase convenience
and ease-of-use for checking in, passenger
screening and baggage facilites, and deliver
significant efficiencies for EIA airline partners.
