[edit] Expansion plans

Starting in autumn 2007 and running through the year 2011, major overhaul works will be conducted at Split. By 2011, Resnik will have an expanded terminal, with 4 jetways. A new, larger apron will be built, because the present one is insufficient.

Expansion of Split Airport will happen in 3 phases.

• Phase One, 2009-2010
  • Expansion of the airport ramp by 45,000 m²
  • Adding a parallel taxiway
  • Purchase of Croatian Air Force and Defense land.
• Phase Two, 2012-2014
  • Construction of a new 25,000 m² airport terminal with 4 jetways
  • Construction of an 85,000 m² airport ramp
