Munich Airport today confirmed that the expansion of its Terminal 1 pier is progressing smoothly and on target for completion next year.

Described as “Bavaria’s new business card for passengers”, the €665 million expansion to the pier will effectively create a state-of-the-art terminal for non-Schengen traffic.

Its capacity of up to six million passengers per year is roughly equivalent to the total passenger volumes of an airport like Hanover in Lower Saxony.

After a trial period in the coming months, the new terminal pier will officially open in the first half of 2026.
