Cork Airport has released a new video update showcasing the remarkable progress being made on its ambitious terminal transformation project, with major upgrades now taking shape ahead of their planned opening later this year.
At the heart of the development is a new mezzanine floor extension that will deliver a significantly enhanced passenger experience. The project includes a completely new security screening area, an expanded arrivals facility and a new executive lounge, all designed to improve passenger flow and comfort while increasing the airport’s operational capacity.
According to Cork Airport, the development team has already recorded more than 72,000 construction hours, with work progressing on schedule and within budget. A key milestone has been the installation of new state-of-the-art C3 security scanners, which are currently undergoing commissioning. Once operational, passengers will no longer need to remove liquids or electronic devices from their hand luggage during security screening, bringing Cork Airport in line with the latest generation of airport security technology.
The investment extends beyond the terminal building itself. Construction has also begun on more than 600 additional spaces in the airport’s Holiday Blue Car Park, while work is underway on what will become Ireland’s largest solar carport, further supporting the airport’s sustainability ambitions.
In the video update, members of the Cork Airport team provide an inside look at the project and explain how the new facilities will enhance the travel experience for passengers using one of Ireland’s busiest regional airports.
