While we’ve already told you about how Kempegowda International Airport (KIA)’s upcoming Terminal 2 will have a huge garden around it, looks like there’s plenty more in store. According to a recent report, the folks at Bangalore International Airport Limited (BIAL) have elaborate plans for the shopping options at the swanky new terminal. While the facility will have domestic and international integrated into it, the commercial space is what you need to look out for.
