With 231 gates, that's over 300 employees per gate or over 150 employees per gate per shift assuming an average of 2 shifts.

More likely three shifts.


Where are all these employees? I haven't noticed anywhere near 150 employees per gate.


Check in, Security, shopping, catering, ATC, luggage handling, aircraft
handling aircraft maintenance, building maintenance, plumbers,
electricians, passport control - sorry border control, ATC, cleaners,
parking control, customs, fuelling operators, information, car hire, and
so it goes on.
