This work presents an evaluation of walking distances and construction costs for airport passenger
terminals as a function of the four configuration concepts mentioned in airport theory literature
(pier, satellite, linear, and transporter), and as a function of various demand levels. The linear
concept presented the shortest walking distance; the transporter concept presented the lowest
construction costs. The results provided are useful for airport planners to assist them in the economic
and operational assessment of building alternatives for new airport passenger terminals.
