  • Sydney Airport reveals ambitious plans to modernise T2 Domestic terminal, the first major upgrade in more than 30 years
  • $200 million investment will enhance passenger experience with streamlined check-in, faster security, and updated facilities
  • New layout, more bag drop technology, and next-gen security technology to speed up departures and improve efficiency
  • Once complete, it is anticipated that 95 per cent of passengers will travel from the kerbside to airside in less than 15 minutes
Sydney Airport has unveiled its design vision for the much-anticipated overhaul of the T2 Domestic terminal, the first major redevelopment in more than three decades at Australia’s busiest domestic terminal.

The $200 million investment aims to provide a faster, smoother, and more efficient travel experience for the 17 million passengers that use T2 every year, focusing on next-generation technology, modern facilities, and greater operational efficiency. Once complete, it is anticipated that 95 per cent of passengers will travel from the kerbside to airside in less than 15 minutes.

The new layout will introduce more self-service kiosks and new bag drop technology, allowing passengers to take control of their check-in process and speed up departures. With the airport currently processing 1,500 bags per hour at peak times, this upgrade will boost capacity to 1,800 bags per hour by 2026, further enhancing efficiency.

Looooooooooong overdue. It basically needs a compete bulldoze rebuild.
Check-in needs a bulldoze, and maybe a direct path to the Virgin pier.. but the food court offerings are well above T3.

Hopefully the special downstairs security doesn't get enhanced. Always useful hand luggage only.
