The construction work of the airport is carried out by Asia World Company. At the end of the master plan, the airport will have 2 runways and 3 terminals with modern facilities. The airport is planned to go according to the three phases.

Phase 1 (2009- mid 2011)

The phase 1 comprises

  • An airport building that can cope with 3.5 million passengers
  • A taxiway with 3700 meters in length and 30.5 meters in width

  • the east hall and west hall with an area of 3224 square meters each and
  • the north hall with an area of 5912 square meters.

The total area of the ground floor, the attic and the first floor of the whole building is 63,000 square meters.

The approach road to the airport with two ways / four lanes is 1500 meters long. The car parking measures 200 meters by 107 meters and its total area is 21,400 square meters. The 62- meter-high control tower can control all the construction tasks of the first, second and third phases of the project.
