REOPENING OF TERMINAL 1 AT PARIS-CHARLES DE GAULLE AIRPORT

Terminal 1 at Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport reopens. Closed for two years due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the terminal now welcomes passengers from some 50 airlines.

Following the reopening to Schengen zone flights and the official ceremony held on the morning of Saturday December 3 in the presence of Transport Minister Clément Beaune, the first long-haul flights took off again today, Monday December 5.

setec opency is proud to have contributed its expertise in prorata account management to the ADP Group, by overseeing the financial management of the #construction site’s common expenses throughout the design, construction and closure phases.

A gigantic worksite whose #modernization work has resulted in the creation of a new nodal building, the result of the junction of satellites 1, 2 and 3, and the modification of the existing connecting tunnel between the central body of Terminal 1 and satellite 2. In all, more than 50 operations have been carried out to improve the quality of service offered by ADP, including the fitting out of 9 aircraft stands (including 5 wide-body aircraft) with new pre-gates, marble flooring, the installation of LED lighting, almost 130 self-service kiosks and 90 automatic baggage drop-offs for 124 multi-company check-in counters, digital signage, a new layout for passenger queues, denser and simpler international borders, etc. The new facilities will enable the airport to handle an additional 1.2 million passengers.
