Terminal 2 (The Queens Terminal) opened on June 4th 2014 after the old
terminal 2 was demolished in 2009. The official opening was on the 23rd of
June 2014 by Queen Elizabeth at official opening. Some of the main
improvements over the old terminal include vastly improved use of natural
light (with north facing ceiling windows) and space and to place the
terminal building and its satellites perpendicular to the runways for huge
efficiency gains. One of the main purposes of the terminal is to house the
Star Alliance group of airlines. Notable for housing one of the largest
sculptures on permanent show anywhere in Europe, The Slipstream created by
Richard Wilson.
