Zagreb Airport is set to quadruple in size according to its expansion plans, it has been reported.
According to Javno.com, a new terminal is set to be constructed which will enable five million passengers to travel through it every year, compared to the current capacity of two million.
Current facilities are expected to be renovated by next summer, while the new building is created 2.5km north-east of the existing structure.
Bosko Matkovic, director of the airport, told the news provider the project is finally coming to fruition 20 years after it was first proposed.
He added: "We now have to request a construction permit, the drawing up of implementation projects and issue a tender for contractors. If everything goes to plan, we expect the works to be completed by the end of 2011 or the beginning of 2012."
Meanwhile, Aircraft Maintenance Technology recently reported Croatia Airlines has agreed a deal with Lufthansa Technik to carry out C-checks on Airbus A320 aircraft.
It is the latest collaborative effort between the two companies in a relationship which stretches back to 1992, with Lufthansa Technik responsible for component support of the airline's Bombardier Q400 fleet.
