The Master Plan for Barcelona Airport included the construction of a new terminal (Terminal 1) located between the existing runways and the new parallel one. This new Terminal was designed by Ricardo Bofill, and its main aim is to adapt to the occurred air traffic growth (8% anually). In this way, the airport is able to grow and it will be able to handle 55 million passengers per year (25 million in 2006). After this amplification, the airport will operate 90 flights per hour instead of the present 62.
The baggage handling system is based on ICS technology (TUBTRAX) for the transportation and sortation of departing baggage from check-in desks and transfer inductions to 20 make-up carousels of the tilted TRIPLANAR type.
