After 20 months, Christchurch Airport’s multi-million revamp is complete and the airport now has reimagined food, retail and family spaces across the terminal.
The project, funded by the airport and its operators, includes a redesign of the food court with 10 new food and beverage outlets, upgraded bathrooms, expanded and new retail spaces, improved seating and new flight information bars.
Family-friendly additions included a new Antarctic-themed play area in the food court (pictured) three dedicated parent rooms as well as two gender neutral facilities.
CHC chief executive Justin Watson says the airport is seeing passenger numbers really take off, and this project is all about keeping up with that and then going a bit further.
“This is about creating a space that works for everyone, especially families,” he adds. The airport’s chief commercial and technology officer David Cooper says the focus now shifts to what comes next.
“While we’ve completed this major upgrade, we already have our eye on future improvements, including some more retail and digital developments,” he says. “We’ve already made a start on a new bar and eatery in international departures.”
