Chennai: Air passengers may want to cast wary glances upwards while walking inside the terminals of Chennai airport.
After all, one never knows when a false ceiling may collapse. False ceiling panels that collapse frequently, cracked glass panels and granite flooring, stinking toilets and pigeon droppings in the terminals, which cost over Rs. 2000 crore, have marred the experience of flying for passengers.
Thirty-five-year-old T. Satish, a corporate head in a private firm, and a frequent flier, said, “Considering the money invested, this airport is a disappointment. The swanky look is pointless if passenger facilities are not upto the mark. Once I had to board a domestic flight from the old international terminal; I was not told about this in advance and so had to walk a long distance due to the lack of a walkalator. Toilets in the new domestic terminal are an eyesore too,” he added.
