Terminal that will facilitate the travels of 43 million passengers every year.

The concept of the plan for the airport was inspired by a fish, the manta ray, which breathes and changes its own shape, undergoes variations and turns into a bird to celebrate the emotion and fantasy of a flight. The airport has been created in the mold of an organic form and plan, both showing how strongly nature has inspired the design.
