From the architect. Terminal 2 is in the east of the terminal zone of Zhengzhou Xinzheng International Airport, which is to the northeast of Terminal 1, and 270m away from the closest point of Terminal 1. It is at the end of Yinbing Road, and perpendicular to the airport access entry. A plaza is enclosed by Terminal 2, Terminal 1 and the future Terminal 3. The X-layout of T2 includes the main building, the southeast, northeast, southwest and northwest concourses, as well as the internal connection concouses. It is a four floors building for both domestic and international passengers.
Advanced experiences from domestic and international big airports are fully considered during the planning phase of Phase 2 of Zhengzhou Xinzheng International Airport.
