Official Spotting Locations
Terminal viewing gallery
Offers an excellent view of park 9 (the main apron for passenger aircraft) but is behind glass and reflections are an obstacle.
Time of day: Morning only as in most positions on the ramp aircraft will be backlit in the afternoon.
Directions: The viewing gallery is located on the 3rd floor of the tower between the arrival and departure halls. If arriving by car, you can park in the airport car park; otherwise see below (information still to be added).
