In January 2021, Bahrain opened a state-of-the-art new passenger terminal building at Bahrain International Airport, increasing annual passenger capacity to what level?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. 14 million passengers annually
- Step 1: The Airport Modernization Program (AMP) completed a new 210,000-square-meter passenger terminal in early 2021.
- Step 2: The terminal expanded Bahrain International Airport's capacity fourfold to 14 million passengers per year, earning a Skytrax 5-star airport rating.
Answer
14 million passengers annually.
Why not the others: '3 million passengers annually' was the constrained capacity of the older terminal; '50 million passengers annually' is typical of regional mega-hubs like Hamad International; '80 million passengers annually' is the scale of Dubai International.
