Future Airport Developments: TAA is a new agency which advises the government as to airport adminstration, infrastructure, facilities & services. It is also creating a new website for all government-owned airports, which is still 'under construction'.
It is not clear if the expansion project which includes construction of a new terminal and a new taxiway, has been completed or when it will be completed. Upon completion, it should triple airplane capacity to 30 planes an hour. A new VIP lounge is also part of the expansion project. The TAA site will be further monitored for more developments.
