Extension of the International Arrival Area

2005 - 2006

Denver International Airport Due to increased demand from international flights, Denver International Airport decided to expand the international arrival area. The first phase of this expansion was completed in 2006 and included an additional baggage reclaim carousel. The second phase will include the relocation and expansion of the immigration area and additional three baggage reclaim carousels.

Logplan was contracted to conduct feasibility studies and layout planning which included evaluation and optimization of the planned layout changes. Logplan also developed a simulation model to determine the implementation phasing schedule of the expansion plan.

Temporary 100% Baggage Screening Solution

2002 - 2003

Check-in Lobby at Denver International Airport In 2002, Logplan developed a simulation tool to determine the impact on the check-in lobbies at Denver International Airport (DIA) resulting from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) contractor's demands for checked baggage screening. This simulation tool demonstrated beyond any doubt that the imposition of this screening process would adversely impact the operation of the airport to the point that the lobby could not hold the people during a normal peak period. The simulation tool allowed for the study of various combinations of screening techniques and locations that resulted in a negotiated solution with the TSA that minimized the impact on airport operations while implementing the 100% automated baggage screening system.
