Future
The 2007-2015 master plan is coming to an end with the construction of pier C, that will enable seven aircraft such as Boeing B777 or A330-340 to connect the terminal via jet bridges. This new terminal will also be use by airlines using smaller aircraft, and flying to non-Shengen country. Changes have already been made in the main terminal with the construction of a new check-in area, new restaurant and duty free shops, as well as a new security checkpoint. With all these changes Geneva expects to be a more efficient airport for passengers and employees.
As of January 2012, and according to the official web site, Geneva International Airport was looking for a new team to develop the terminal landside. An upgrade might be done within five years, and may include upgrading the check-in and arrival levels.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“To believe in something not yet proved and to underwrite it with our lives: it is the only way we can leave the future open. Man, surrounded by facts, permitting himself no surmise, no intuitive flash, no great hypothesis, no risk, is in a locked cell. Ignorance cannot seal the mind and imagination more surely.”
—Lillian Smith (1897–1966)
“It lives less in the present
Than in the future always,
And less in both together
Than in the past.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“[M]y conception of liberty does not permit an individual citizen or a group of citizens to commit acts of depredation against nature in such a way as to harm their neighbors and especially to harm the future generations of Americans. If many years ago we had had the necessary knowledge, and especially the necessary willingness on the part of the Federal Government, we would have saved a sum, a sum of money which has cost the taxpayers of America two billion dollars.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
