Abstract

The planning of air transport infrastructure for airport terminal has been largely oriented towards the needs of airline as main customers. Airport as a provider for air transportation has consistently been geared towards meeting the highly demand of airlines, while passengers as end of users of air transport modes has been largely neglected. The pressure aimed for simplifying the terminal infrastructure has led to the decreasing of Level of Service (LOS) of airport facilities, which subsequently, increase the pressure of space and uncomfortable airport experiences towards cargo and passengers. After several years of establishment of airport, there is no evidence that the preferences of mixed cargo and passengers have been preferred into terminal design as the airport planners to reduce the airport space and size to reduce the associated cost of development. The worldwide growth of airport is having a significant influence on traffic forecasts for potential air travellers with increased pressure from airlines and passengers for reduced airport charges and air fares, while at the same time, the airports are faced with the need to increase efficiency levels in their operations to cater for the anticipated traffic growth that airport have generated.
