Pulkovo Airport, new passenger terminal.

The building of the Leningrad air terminal, designed in the mid-70s by the famous architect Alexander Vladimirovich Zhuk, is not only a striking example of the architecture of that time, but also one of the symbols of the city, but has long been out of step with the pace of its development. Terminals built during the times of Brezhnev and Khrushchev constantly cannot keep up with the ever-increasing passenger traffic. Therefore, in the fall of 2010, construction of a new terminal officially began.

On November 24, 2010, at the St. Petersburg Pulkovo Airport, with the participation of the heads of government, the first stone of the new terminal was laid. The building of the future airport terminal with an area of ​​more than 100 thousand square meters will increase the maximum throughput air terminal complex up to 13 million passengers per year. In the future, it will be connected to the Pulkovo-1 terminal and will unite domestic and international destinations.

The construction of a new terminal will turn Pulkovo Airport into the largest transport hub, where every second passenger will be a transit passenger. The infrastructure of the new three-story terminal will be supplemented with convenient two-level parking, a comfortable hotel and modern offices, and the Aeroexpress will be able to transport passengers from the airport to the city center in just 15 minutes. This will be one of the most modern and largest airport complexes in Eastern Europe.

Both complexes have all the necessary conditions for the comfort of passengers - comfortable waiting rooms, numerous shopping areas, luxurious business and VIP lounges, a variety of restaurants and cafes, first aid posts, pharmacies, ATMs, post office, currency exchange offices, as well as free zones. wireless access in Internet.

10 facts from the history of Pulkovo

The history of LED began back in 1932, and during this time the “biography” of the aerocomplex has acquired dozens of interesting facts. Here are just a small part of them - about the origin of the name, the architect’s ideas and the role of the air harbor in culture.

  1. Initially, the complex was named after the railway platform - Shosseynaya airfield. The modern name, which came from Pulkovo Heights, was first announced to passengers in 1973.
  2. In 1941, the PLC, which found itself on the front line, was closed. It was possible to fully resume its work only after 8 years.
  3. Pulkovo received an international three-letter code, traditionally similar to the name of a locality or airport, during the existence of Leningrad. On tickets it is still designated as LED.
  4. There have been 7 disasters in the history of the air gate. The last one happened in 1991. Then the unsuccessful landing of the airliner claimed the lives of 13 passengers on the Sukhumi-Leningrad flight and 2 PLC employees.
  5. The “glasses” of the old building not only form the appearance of the airport terminal, but also perform an important function – they allow natural light into the building. There is a legend among the people that the architect came up with them during a feast. Then, allegedly, someone put an inverted faceted glass on the table - and then 5 of the same ones appeared on the roof of the airport.
  6. Pulkovo has a carefully thought-out security system, tested by three hundred volunteers. Test participants were given suitcases, some of which contained fake bombs, people were sent to mingle with real passengers, and airport services were alerted to searches. All potential violators were then detained, and the explosive devices were neutralized.
  7. PLC has the lowest unshipped baggage rate in Europe. For every one bag left behind, approximately 1,000 have flown to their destination.
  8. In 2016, The Telegraph included the terminal among the ten most beautiful terminals in the world. And in 2012, the only one in Russia, it entered the top 100 innovative projects according to KPMG.
  9. Not only numerous catering establishments, but also art objects allow you to pass the time in the terminal. On the territory there are sculptures of Peter I, angels with airplane wings, and the installation “The ABC of St. Petersburg” is open.
  10. LED “played” a role in “The Irony of Fate.” It is here that Lukashin's adventures in Leningrad begin.

On the territory of Pulkovo there is almost everything a traveler might need: a cafe for every budget, free Wi-Fi, places to relax and recharge equipment. The airport is a well-thought-out modern complex, with clear and simple navigation. Getting confused in the halls and corridors is not easy even for those arriving at LED for the first time, and if this happens, the airport terminal staff will always help solve the problem.
