Expansion Plans
In 2009, Bihor County and Search Corporation agreed to extend the runway to 2,400 m (7,874 ft) and construct a cargo terminal. The future development strategy also includes the construction of a new passenger terminal. The airport will be able to receive a larger number of passengers and cargo aircraft. The passenger terminal is currently (December 2010) under major reconstruction in order to comply with the Schengen Area security measures. The reconstruction is scheduled to finish in March 2011, the possible Romanian joining date of the Schengen Area.
Deloitte Consulting together with the Bostina&Asociatii lawfirm will provide legal and financial advisory services for the development of the airport.

Famous quotes containing the words expansion and/or plans:
“Artistic genius is an expansion of monkey imitativeness.”
—W. Winwood Reade (1838–1875)
“The important thing about travel in foreign lands is that it breaks the speech habits and makes you blab less, and breaks the habitual space-feeling because of different village plans and different landscapes. It is less important that there are different mores, for you counteract these with your own reaction- formations.”
—Paul Goodman (1911–1972)
