NiwPix Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Great news....but I thought it was already approved a few months ago?? But then again the "approved" figure was 30 million I believe. I hope they will also increase the parking lot at the airport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SantiSuk Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 "... The airport’s operation remained unaffected..." Try telling that to the ladies who now have the vain efforts to sell hot food to departing passengers from makeshift shacks in the car park! Businesses decimated I suspect.

If it's unaffected, why do customers have to use smelly mobile toilets. I don't think it's to give the 1970"s pop concert ambience to tourists!
