Opening of Proxipark P2: 3,200 additional parking spaces on the terminal doorstep

A new multi-storey car park (P2) has been open since 30 May to complement Proxipark services. Built opposite to Hall D, this new 3,200-space parking area is only at a few minutes away from the hall.

Users are guided by a lighting system and specially adapted signs for easy locating, avoiding stress and wasting time. Pedestrians can easily find their way by following the raised signs and an orange walkway on the ground indicating the exits.Outside, next to Hall D, screens will be installed showing flight information and check-in waiting times.

Built in line with P1 with a metal framework, this car park is in complete harmony with the existing car park from an architectural standpoint. Beyond its appearance, particular attention has been paid to the environmental aspect of this building: low-energy light bulbs, graduated lighting system, rainwater collector, natural ventilation, etc.

Key figures

• 75 m x 35 m building
• Budget: €30 M
• 3,200 spaces, spread over 8 levels
• Large spaces 2.5 m wide and 2.20 m clear height
• Disabled spaces grouped on the ground level and on the 1st and 2nd levels

Walk-on/walk-off boarding for low-cost airlines

Toulouse-Blagnac Airport has adapted its existing infrastructure to meet the needs of airlines wishing to reduce the turnaround times of their aircraft to less than 30 minutes. Three pre-boarding rooms have been set up in Hall C and stairs to the aircraft parking stands have been installed. Similar steps will be taken in the Hall D satellite.

A new retail area for Hall C

With the opening of Hall D, Toulouse-Blagnac Airport has renovated Hall C to bring it in line with the new hall.

In the boarding area, the existing space in Hall C has been redesigned and now offers more up-to-date fittings, shops and amenities like those provided in Hall D. Since April 2011, this new 650 m2 area has complemented and broadened the products and services currently on offer in Hall D. The Spirit of Toulouse store and the Relay newsagent/Stade Toulousain area have been moved to this part of Hall C where luggage, leather goods, clothing, electronics and gifts can also be found. There is a full range of services too: automated cash points, telephones, Internet terminals, etc. Fast-food outlets will also complement the restaurant offer in Hall D.

"La croix du Sud" Lounge gets a makeover

The renovation of Hall C also concerns the VIP lounge "La Croix du Sud", which will be moved from the hall mezzanine to the future retail area. It will settle into a more spacious home (208 m² compared to the current 120 m²), starting in early 2012.

Car parks: a new payment and access control system

In mid-April 2011, the airport implemented a new payment system to have sophisticated and scalable equipment that can adapt to future technological advances in contactless payment. As well as returning to traditional (bank-card size) tickets swallowed by automatic payment machines, the bank card payment system in the exit terminals will be more efficient and faster. In the longer term, it will be possible to carry out contactless payments very simply through NFC chips which will soon be fitted in bank cards and mobile phones.

New sales desks for Hall C

New sales desks have opened in Hall C. British Airways and Lufthansa are there, as well as Avia Partner and Map Handling agencies. Located opposite to the check-in counters in a dedicated area, the new sales desks are fitted out more stylishly, with brighter lighting and superior materials for your greater comfort. With this restructuring of the sales desks, Hall C is continuing its transformation to offer you a better service.

A new baggage conveyor in Hall D

Starting in July 2011, work will begin on installing a new baggage conveyor in Hall D, which will then have two conveyors.
