Munich Airport has released an update on its upcoming new pier at Terminal 1, with construction expected to be completed by the end of 2025.
The exterior façade of the building was completed last year and the airport is now moving forward with interior fittings.
Munich Airport, which is investing a total of €665 million in the project, said that once construction is complete “extensive testing” would still need to be carried out before the building can be put into operation.
The 360-metre-long pier will be home to the airport's non-Schengen airlines, including AA, British Airways, Delta, Emirates, Turkish Airlines and Qatar Airways.
Three floors of the six-story building will be used for passengers: level 03 for immigration control, baggage claim and bus gates, level 04 for the pier market and departure gates, and level 05 for the arrivals area, passport control and security checkpoints. which will use next generation CT scanners.
The dock will be able to accommodate up to 12 smaller aircraft or six wide-body aircraft at the same time.
