Jakarta Soekarno Hatta International Airport (JKT) Master Plan

JKT caught my attention recently because of the spectacular growth it has been experiencing recently.  It is the busiest airport in Southeast Asia overtaking both Bangkok and Singapore.  In 2011, it had 54million passengers, which was 19.3% more than 2010. 

It is bursting at its seams and so expansion of the airport is needed urgently.  There is a US$1.3billion expansion plan expected to begin this month (July 2012).  Click here to read the Jakarta Globe's story about this.

The Master Plan shows the existing 2 parallel Runways and 3 Terminals.  It also shows a proposed 3rd Runway and 4th Terminal.

Click here for a video (9min 17 sec) showing Soekarno Hatta International Airport's Master Plan.  It's called the "Grand Design".  It's not in English but the illustrations are quite informative with English terms scattered throughout the video.
