Breakwaters
The terminal 2 It is a great terminal, but it is divided into a central structure (120 thousand square meters) mainly for check-in, migration and security, and from there come four spaces for the departure of the flights that called them: breakwaters.
The 4 Terminal breakwaters 2 International are not just imposing structures, but they represent the best of Airport technology. All the works carried out add up to more than 362 thousand square meters, that versus the 114.400 m2 of the old terminal is a superior work in every sense.
Each, with a size from 22 thousand square meters, can simultaneously serve an average of 12 flights each and of different sizes as Boeing 787 O Airbus A350, optimizing passenger flow and significantly reducing waiting times.
The terminal 2 Internacional not only stands out for its avant-garde architecture, but also for the incorporation of cutting-edge technology in all its areas, For example, in security filters you do not have to take off shoes., nor remove the laptop from the backpack since the latest generation equipment is used, similar and even superior to those seen in USA.
Passengers have automated check-in systems to self-check (96 totems) and self-check luggage (64 modules), reducing lines and waiting times along with 56 immigration checkpoints. What's more, The terminal has interactive information screens that provide up-to-date flight information, Where is the check-in area and even how far do you have to walk to get to your boarding gate?.
And how could it not be missed and even more so now, the commitment to environmental sustainability is present in every aspect of the Terminal design 2 International. Energy efficiency measures have been implemented, such as the use of LED lighting and intelligent temperature control systems. What's more, A rainwater recovery system has been incorporated for irrigation of green areas and use in toilets..
Cutting-edge technical features and a focus on sustainability are not the only benefits the Terminal offers 2 International. Passengers will be able to enjoy:

Greater connectivity
The inauguration of the Terminal 2 International not only benefits passengers, but also represents a significant boost for Chilean aviation. The new terminal will allow expanding the offer of international flights, connecting to Chile with new destinations and strengthening its position as a regional connection center.
What's more, The greater capacity and efficiency of the terminal will be able, potentially, attract new airlines and current airlines increase their flights thanks to greater operational capacity, benefiting both tourism and foreign trade.
The terminal 2 International Arturo Merino Benitez Airport It is not just an infrastructure project, but a legacy for future generations who will be able to enjoy a first-class infrastructure that has the capacity to sustain the country's growth for several decades..
Definitely, a terminal that pleasantly surprised me from start to finish, being now Santiago a first class airport, nothing to envy anyone in the world, leaving only pending issues to improve waiting times in exit migration and the implementation of more plugs to charge our devices.
