NEWS FLASH


Ohrid St Paul the Apostle Airport is set for a major overhaul this year, Macedonia’s Minister for Transport, Aleksandar Nikoloski, has announced. According to the Minister, work will commence in the coming months. The reconstruction has been previously pledged by successive governments as part of the commitments made by concessionaire TAV Macedonia. In 2022, TAV Macedonia told EX-YU Aviation News, "There is a plan to develop and expand Ohrid Airport’s infrastructure, with construction work to be carried out in phases, depending on various factors, primarily the growth in air traffic". The airport’s terminal building last underwent a full renovation and expansion in 1995.

      Tav invested what they had to invest they asked the government 2019 for like hundred million euros to build a new terminal and fix the wrong way more but the Covid hit and they didn't do shit so is the government Fault not the company.

      Don't blame the company they invested the money they supposed to invest

      The design is still not shared , as we know the existing terminal building will be renovated such as increasing the capacity from 300k to 600k passengers.

      The actuel SKP airport building is not the original design. Because of TAV crisis at this time they choose a more cheaper design. You can find the original projet here https://pin.it/6jFA6WxlR

      That’s the whole idea, that it WILL get closer to that number, so they will expand the terminal. There are some new additions for 2025 including the entry of THY

      They will do a new terminal for sure it will fit 1 million passengers. We plan to expand the terminal to 3 million if the airport got very lot tourism, but as we know, the Macedonian government or the government of Republic of Macedonia have no vision for tourism like Albania does in other countries. They just want to live with socialism. They talk with Communism mindset. They don't wanna do anything. I mean the Communism from 50s not now

    Much needed.

    Macedonia has enough money to build a tiny modern Terminal and get rid of this Bus station from the 70's which is probably the size of an H&M shop.

    Why? There is hardly any interest for Ohrid flights. Maybe as a backup when SKP is fogged during winter. Most of the tourist who fill Ohrid hotels come by car, and that will not change.
