Move Under One Roof - Faster Transfer Times
We've developed a concept where all our member airlines come together at one terminal. We call that Move Under One Roof. It means much faster connections between flights. For instance, at Terminal One at Narita in Japan, we've cut the waiting times by over 50%.
Co-location is sweeping the globe, with Bangkok, Miami, Shanghai, Beijing, Singapore and Seoul following rapidly in Narita's footsteps.
Not surprising really, after all, what's the point of flying around the world in fast planes if you land at slow airports?
Move Under One Roof at Narita, Japan
In June 2006, Star Alliance member carriers1 moved to the newly built South Wing of Narita Airport's Terminal 1. With member carriers together in one terminal, transfer times are reduced and customers can take advantage of an improved customer check-in area, with Star Alliance Gold card holders being served at an exclusive area.
With our member airlines co-located under one roof, the time it takes to get to your connecting flight can literally be cut in half:
Connection From June 2006 Previously
International-International 45 minutes 110 minutes
Domestic-International 60 minutes 130 minutes
International-Domestic 75 minutes 110 minutes
Most of you will also be able to take advantage of 'Zonal Check-in'2. This unique system instantly recognises if you're flying Business or First Class and gives you automatic priority. Better still, if you're a Star Alliance Gold member, you fly through the airport even quicker via your own check-in zone.
