A new passenger terminal will appear at Makhachkala airport to service domestic flights. The construction is scheduled to begin in 2023, the head of Dagestan Sergei Melikov said at a meeting with journalists from federal media.

“There is a development program for the airport, an international terminal was opened this year. In 2023, it is planned to build a temporary terminal for domestic traffic and begin the construction of a new terminal" - Melikov said.

Besides, an issue of building a new runway is currently being considered. “Now we have a runway of 2,620 meters, we want to be 3,200 meters long so that we can receive the large-tonnage aircrafts - both cargo and passenger,” the head of the republic explained.

Recall that in August this year, an international terminal with an area of more than 11 thousand square meters was opened in the airport. Its capacity is 190 people per hour, which is three times quicker than the old checkpoint.
