If you depart from the downstairs gates, it is always unbearably hot. We haven't left from there now for a few trips so we were lucky I guess. Hope you leave from the upstairs gates.

Since the opening of the new airport, it routinely feels much warmer downstairs versus upstairs. With more departure gates (open doors versus jetways) on the lower level, the sun reflecting off the hot surface and the heat from the departing planes and equipment, it is not a formula that lends itself to a/c doing much.

I was just about to edit my post and add that. You are correct. All those stressed, warm and tanned bodies add to the atmosphere also.

Yes, downstairs is a terrible design at the new airport and the (thankfully few) times we've been down there, it has been hot as hades. And very crowded. Upstairs, I generally find it very comfortable, as far as temperature.
