Some plane spotting after 2AM. Air India's 77W (VT-AEM) headed for New York.
Lufthansa Airbus A380 heading to Munich (D-AIMC)
Our Emirates plane arrived and was supposed to initially park at the Lufthansa spot but then they changed the gate to gate 1.
A6-ENE parking at gate 1.
Virgin Atlantic Airbus A350-1000 heading to LHR later at night. (G-VLIB)
Now here's where it's interesting. Gate 1 was where everyone headed to, but unlike other Indian international airports, there was another boarding pass check before entering the hold room. This hold room is similar to Singapore Changi, but security itself is already done and that you could still leave at any time if you needed to use the restroom.
Boarding group was called by zones at 3:40AM.
