Dec 23, 2011 (newstodate): The business plan behind the project for a new all-LCC new terminal at Copenhagen Airport, named Terminal A has gained momentum with the adjustments to terms behind the airport's own low-cost facility, CPH Go!
CPH GO was opened on October 31, 2010, but has so far attracted only one operator, easyJet.
Now the Danish Competition Authority has ruled that the terminal must open up for transfer traffic to offer fair and equal access to all airlines at the airport.
The private venture Terminal A is from the outset designed to handling of low-cost, non-transfer traffic only with a fixed set of requirements on operators and at charges reflecting its use by low-cost operators exclusively.
Copenhagen Airport has vehemently denied the lease of a land plot to build the new terminal, and this has been brought to the Danish Competition Authority by Terminal A that awaits its decision early in 2012.
Once a verdict is passed in favor of the stalled low-cost terminal project, some 18 months are required for legal issues and construction works before operations can be commenced.
