Capacity and taxiways

  • The apron can serve up to 60 aircraft, up from 40 before the Terminal 3 expansion.
  • The east cross taxiway, opened in December 2019, links the two main runways.
  • Aircraft movements rose from 72 to 86 per hour after the east cross taxiway opened.

Airfield development

The third runway and the east cross taxiway were completed under the airport’s expansion programme.

Plans for a fourth terminal were scrapped in November 2024 in favour of optimising the existing terminals.
