Hong Kong realiza la cuenta regresiva para el lanzamiento, el 27 de mayo, de la Terminal 2 reconfigurada de su aeropuerto. Las instalaciones utilizarán servicios basados en tecnología para agilizar las salidas y reducir los cuellos de botella.

La secretaria de Transporte y Logística, Mable Chan, declaró el sábado que la Terminal 2 está lista para atender a los viajeros. En una entrada de blog, destacó las nuevas tecnologías y señaló que la marca de prestigio de Hong Kong alcanzará otro hito con la apertura.

La Autoridad Aeroportuaria prevé que la terminal gestione unos 8 millones de viajes de pasajeros en su primer año. El año pasado, todo el aeropuerto gestionó 61 millones de viajes de pasajeros.

La Terminal 2 forma parte de la mejora del sistema de tres pistas del aeropuerto, valorada en 141 500 millones de dólares hongkoneses, con el objetivo de aumentar la capacidad y la eficiencia ante la competencia regional.
