Contemporary trends in the design of passenger terminals have been linked to the concept of sustainability in terms of its endeavor to upgrade in order to suit the requirements of the current era, namely the integration of environmental, social and economic aspects that apply the principles of sustainability in the planning, design and operation of its various spaces, this is highlighted by the previous studies, although the introduction of them in most cases is general and implicit, and selectively in adopting and treating some aspects and not knowing how to apply in local experiences so far, the research problem was determined by the incomprehensiveness of knowledge on the dimensions of sustainability (environmental, social and economic) in the design or various treatments of airport terminals and ways of applying them in local reality, the main objective is to introduce this knowledge in a more comprehensive and clear manner, and to provide the possibility to achieve it locally, achieving this goal has necessitated the adoption of a descriptive-analytical approach to the studies and practical projects to build a comprehensive theoretical framework that defines the various dimensions of sustainable passenger terminals. To be applied at selected local case study in the form of an evaluation study of the reality situation, leading to the identification of conclusions and recommendations.
