The expansion is part of a broader agreement with a consortium of international companies led by Urbacon Holding (UCC), aimed at modernizing the airport in line with international standards.

In December last year, the authority signed final contracts worth about $4 billion with the consortium, which includes companies from Qatar, Türkiye and the United States, to develop, expand and operate the airport.
