New Chopin Airport terminal opened

New shops and restaurants will be open in the Chopin Airport's new terminal on May 1 and the first passengers will be served on May 23, the airport operator informed. The new retail area includes restaurants and shops with a total area of over 3,000 sq m, while the total area of all the restaurants and cafes exceeds 700 sq m. "Global brands available in our shopping arcade will allow passengers to feel as if they were at the best Paris, London or Milan department stores, which is exactly what our customers expect. At the airport they have time for relaxed shopping, and we are happy to provide them with that opportunity," said Michał Kaczmarzyk, the director of Chopin Airport. The new commercial zone will be launched in the restricted area of the airport, which is only available to passengers with boarding passes who have gone through security. The public area of the new terminal will open to passengers on 23 May. “We need time to transfer offices of airlines and ground handling agents and organise the check-in process in its final form. We’ve given ourselves two weeks to accomplish this,” said Michał Kaczmarzyk.
