The Incheon International Airport Corp. (IIAC), has launched the trial operation of South Korea's first remote boarding facility.
Located at the second passenger terminal, the remote boarding facility is an indoor boarding facility designed for passengers boarding a plane from the apron.
The facility allows passengers to move to the apron by bus and board the flight from there when boarding gates are extremely busy.
The current apron boarding techniques have significant drawbacks, such as challenges with handling luggage and exposure to inclement weather.
The IIAC constructed two remote boarding facilities with a combined floor area of 550 square meters and two above-ground floors at the western apron of Terminal 2 in May to address these inconveniences.
The IIAC intends to build two further buildings at Terminal 2's eastern apron by April 2023.
The IIAC introduced eight large, environmentally friendly electric buses, each of which can hold up to 90 people, to increase the convenience of passengers boarding the flight after relocating to the apron.
