FAAN to commence expansion of Lagos Airport GAT

In its quest to improve on the infrastructure and service delivery at the General Aviation Terminal, (GAT) Lagos, the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) has said it is set to expand the Zulu wing of the terminal.

The Authority said that expansion project, which will commence in that axis of the terminal, will only hamper passenger facilitation minimally at the terminal, as normal passenger check-in will not be affected in any way.

However, the Protocol and VIP lounge at the terminal, it said will be affected as the facilities will be relocated temporarily till the end of the project because major construction works will be carried out.

In the meantime, the Authority said it is already making arrangements for temporary spaces to be used as Protocol and VIP lounges, while the project is being executed.

“When the expansion project is completed, the terminal would have been enhanced in terms of capacity, aesthetics and passenger comfort, as the expected and expanded new lounges will be twice what is presently on ground.

“The Authority will like to appeal to passengers and other airport users to please be patient and bear with us for any inconvenience, while the project will last. “We will continue to give more updates on the project, as the need arises,” FAAN added.
