Busy year, with more growth predicted
25.12.11
With passenger numbers expected to be around 3 million, 2011 has been another busy year for Leeds Bradford Airport, the Telegraph & Argus reports. But rather than resting on his laurels, the airport's chief executive John Parkin is driving forward with ambitious plans to make sure 2012 is as good, if not better.
The airport has seen passengers increase by around 13% this year as more routes by airlines have been backed up by a £28m redevelopment of the terminal. This has helped make Leeds Bradford the fastest-growing regional airport in the country and was the 16th busiest passenger airport in the UK.
The next stage of the development is under way, with an £11m project to transform the terminal and improve the passenger experience. This should see passenger numbers up again in 2012, with the target of 5 million by 2016 in sight.
