The south-side gates will be large enough to house six narrow-body aircraft.

Scheduled to open at the end of next year, the pier will have security filters, border control, shops and catering. It will also be equipped with 5,000m² solar panels and rainwater conservation facilities for use in the toilets.

The pier will comprise three floors to segregate passengers according to border and security status and it can be used by multiple air operators and destinations.

Royal Schiphol Group also plans to add two wide-body gates at the pier in future. The addition is not part of the work package.
