‘New version’ of Amausi welcomes flyers on Day 1

Lucknow: Singapore-based businessman, Gagan Mehrotra was expecting the same old drab Amausi airport terminal to greet him on Saturday noon. But, Mehrotra was in for a pleasant surprise and virtually could not believe his eyes, as he got routed into a swanky gigantic building that resembled some of the better, if not the best, airport terminals in the country. Gone are the sheen less walls and the congested space that marked the gateway to Lucknow. What surrounded the passengers instead were some of the better services that they have been craving for quite some time.
"It is indeed pleasant to see Lucknow growing like this," said a smiling Mehrotra as he stepped out of the new terminal building that was finally thrown open to public on early hours of Saturday.
Officials of the Airport Authority of India have been sweating hard to ensure a smooth opening of the new terminal. And they received a reasonably good response from the passengers. "The feel of the terminal is good. We hope to see much more facilities in coming days," said Rakhi Garg, who had arrived from Mumbai.
