The Abu Dhabi International Airport expansion will increase the 



airport’s capacity to 20 million passengers per annum.

The terminal will sit between two operational runways. The opening of the terminal is scheduled for early 2015.
In January 2010, the Supervision Committee for the Expansion of the Abu Dhabi International Airport invited contractors to ‘express interest’ in the main Midfield Terminal Building package. Other pending construction tenders include ‘Airport wide Utilities & Infrastructure’ and ‘Police Fixed Wing Apron’. Pending design tenders cover utilities, maintenance facilities and a cargo campus.
