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:
“The most remarkable aspect of the transition we are living through is not so much the passage from want to affluence as the passage from labor to leisure.... Leisure contains the future, it is the new horizon.... The prospect then is one of unremitting labor to bequeath to future generations a chance of founding a society of leisure that will overcome the demands and compulsions of productive labor so that time may be devoted to creative activities or simply to pleasure and happiness.”
—Henri Lefebvre (b. 1901)
“Peace does not appear so distant as it did. I hope it will come soon, and come to stay; and so come as to be worth the keeping in all future time. It will then have been proved that, among free men, there can be no successful appeal from the ballot to the bullet; and that they who take such appeal are sure to lose their case, and pay the cost.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“Although I’m trying very hard
To sound unlike a birthday card,
That’s all this is: so you may find it
Full of all that lies behind it
Admiration; friendship too;
And hope that in the future you
Reap ever richer revenue.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
