Plans call for a completely new passenger terminal, longer runway, and expanded taxiways.
The current single 2,800 m runway will be extended 540 meters to the east to a total length of 3,340 m and completely resurfaced with specifications of 45 x 3600 cm and PCN 90, together with additional taxiways covering 20,000 m2. Senior energy officials indicated they would use the funds to rehabilitate and modernize Bulgaria's main power capacities.
