boarding passes check!
off the the departures we go!
weg ot caught up with a brief of the scaled model of T3 floorplan showing the key terminal location and facilities
here we are the twilight departure wrap gate, but...
theres 11 check in rows in total
not to mention 7 floors in height and almost 63 football fields in area!
and we still have not checked in yet!
ok enough done with the scale model, lets get on with the 1:1 scale...
like this cool baggage collection area for example!
you can help your friends spot their luggage as they come around the carousel now!
noticeably is a long green wall lining the whole length of the terminal walls
theres even a prominent bulk luggage exit point as well.
which is 7 floor high and 300m long!
here we are told more on appreciating the skylight system again
not to mention how many Tasmanian Tigers & Dodos we can bring back on top of lowering the sea level with the power we save o
hey it's everybody's part for the environment right?
littered along the terminal are large multi-coloured, multi-lingual sign boards
departure UFO - whos your daddy?
finally time to enter the restricted areas!
we see draped sheets!
and lots of them!
here we have the same ICA biometric passport scanner gantries for passport and access card holders.

more gold fish blowers after the departures

the A gates are freaking long to walk you need to talk a skytrain to the end!, the B gates though, are humanely nearer
though it still took...
...quite sometime to reach...
more arrows which points everywhere, anywhere
the the dismay of aunties all around, looks like no one can do much shopping today!
there will be tons of R&R TVs, sofas, not to mention lots of free internet access stations for ya geeknerds
for removing a bubblewrap? a fine city indeed! Tear it off! tear it off!
here's the koi pond area, minus the kois who yet to move in that is!
this area is kept cool in the afternoon with lots of sun visors
the children ate the fishes!
More shots of the invisible-koi pond area
Here we have few of the A380 super jumbo ready (TM) gating platforms aka aerogates on the B gates
with lots of s p a c e between gates, much bigger than what I've seen built for 747s
the koi bridge to go with a koi pond!
