the holding area gates we enter!
the departure entrance is similar to that of T2, with a 2nd level fly-over entrance for direct vehicular alighting
the demo skytrain in operation
the children ate the fishes!
the check in booth area on level 2nd (departures)
the bulk baggage exit, pet elephants, donkeys and surfboards all come out through here!
the breathtaking view of the immigration and welcome center
The B1 and B4 gates are few of the 8 specially built aerogates for the airbus A380
the A gates are freaking long to walk you need to talk a skytrain to the end!, the B gates though, are humanely nearer
Thats all Folks! See you at the Jan 9th official grand opening!
thanks to a computerised automatic reflector skylight system
Terminals 3 in Red, 1 in Blue and 2 in Yellow
T3 sits at a whooping 380,000 sqm, dwarfing both T1 and T2
some of the fancy floorwork around the area
some adorable dolphin figure cravings on the walls
so the trains travel like giant Tamiya race cars in contained tracks in a mechanical layman sense
snappy!
snappy

noticeboard rules for those who get a kick from reading all these...
noticeably is a long green wall lining the whole length of the terminal walls
note the travellators here are little more well fed and bigger (wider)
note the same looming skylight over here too
note the perimeter unfinished surroundings
note how vast the place is, not to mention a 7 floor skylit ceiling!
not to mention trees which grow right off the floor!
not to mention the little ones alike
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
not to mention F&B outlets
not to mention 7 floors in height and almost 63 football fields in area!
nope you are not supposed to think its an escalator it's supposed to be disguised.
No special skylights here as the floor above us've used 'em all sunlight matety
next stop we are going downunder...
