Raihan, this tunnel goes under the north Runway. i have marked it in red for you. Terminal 1, 2 and 3 are located between the north and south runway and are accesed through this tunnel.

T4 is to the south of the south runway and T5 sits between the runways to the west. T4 and T5 are accessed via their own access roads.

BTW, I have been to T5 for the passenger trials before it opened. We were asked to report at 8am for 4 - 5 hours of trials. we had to pretend to be passengers and undertake one check in and boarding and one arrival and immigration clearance.

Really enjoyed that day and we sat in the jetty terminal T5-b on the corner watching takeofs for about 2 hours. Unfortunatly we were told no photography allowed.

Objective of this day was to trial run the terminal and baggage systems with mock passengers before it was opened for the public..... :shock: Im sure everyone remebers what actually happened when the terminal was opened for real.

We were also given a gift bag by BAA which included marketing material for T5 and a travel adaptor.

If memebers want i can give a more detailed "day report" of the trial day that I took part in.
