10 people per minute.
Not a huge number, is it?
I know that they arrive at the station (and the airport) in waves,
but ISTM that wave will flatten itself out due to the normal
differences that people have in walking time (with their luggage)
from the platform to the start of the walkway.
It's far too small a number to justify a project as ambitious as you
suggest.
and building a monorail/whatever other fixed link is less ambitions?
That's even worse. The bus is the most sensible solution.
Monorails have a tendency not to work, with Newark Liberty Airport being a
prime example.
What about an H-Bahn, however, the type of which they have at Dortmund and
at Düsseldorf Airport? Perhaps a turnkey project?
are you simply suggesting the the technology used should be a "hanging"
train rather than one sitting on top of a rail
surely the average person would consider that is a "monorail", it still only
has one rail
