with lots of s p a c e between gates, much bigger than what I've seen built for 747s

you can't help but notice the carpets in the area, at least they look good on photo!

here we are the twilight departure wrap gate, but...

with the exception of some modern technology...

the the dismay of aunties all around, looks like no one can do much shopping today!

not to mention 7 floors in height and almost 63 football fields in area!

thanks to a computerised automatic reflector skylight system

3 more plasma screens to the count and I am out of fingers already!

the whole terminal is luminated purely by sunlight in the day

T3 sits at a whooping 380,000 sqm, dwarfing both T1 and T2

like this cool baggage collection area for example!

we are first to check in!

the departure entrance is similar to that of T2, with a 2nd level fly-over entrance for direct vehicular alighting

this system automatically adjusts the ceiling reflectos so the optimum light levels can be directed in given cloud and sun posit

more arrows which points everywhere, anywhere

it seems that the skylight is everywhere!

a scene from 'the terminal"?

sydney-two-wolves-community-cantina-01

australian-parliament-canberra-22

view from the counters, imagine see a horde/swarm of people coming towards you here when a A380 is emptied
