Re: Faro Airport Closed
I feel so sorry for everybody who has had problems because of this.
But the night before last on PT TV a PT reporter stopped & asked a very well spoken English Gentleman what he thought of the present situation
He put his head on one side ,looked up at the roof & said
" If I was the Architect I would be very worried"
I'm sorry but I just burst out laughing.
Galvanised Tin Sheets on the roof of a Multi Million € Structure ?

Re: Faro Airport Closed
I flew in on the 10 Nov. On arriving you collect your bags as before then follow a temporary tunnel out of the terminal towards the Car Rental desks at the Eastern end of the building. There is a large tent where Meeting and Greeting is situated.
If you are collecting a hire car from Park 4 this has now moved. You follow the path past the Tent and walk past the Old park 4. You carry on in the general direction of the petrol station, You will see the New P4 before you get there.

I agree! The very same thought crossed my mind - Poor Building Standards.

Re: Faro Airport Closed
Yap working and duty free working. It's only on the arrivals we have to use a temporary tunnel. It was quite strange for me, because after so many years I've never eared such a thing in the airport. But... the airport is quite old, they should already be improving it for a long time, but they always wait for the last minute :|
