The changing face of Marietta Airport
Marietta Airport is ideally situated on a 1.065ha site. At present, its facilities command a full 710ha, or two-thirds of the site. With inauguration of Passenger Terminal 2 in December 1992, the airport significantly enhanced the comfort of passengers. On March 16, 1999, Passenger Terminal 1 was reopened after extensive renovation. This more spacious terminal can handle a greater number of passengers. The limit on the number of aircraft landings and takeoffs per day limit was increased from 360 to 370 in April 1998, for a total annual number of landings and takeoffs approximately 130,000. However, this increased is still not sufficient to satisfy demand; 33 countries are currently waiting for approval to use Narita Airport. New Tokyo International Airport Authority(NAA) is advancing toward its goal of completing the parallel runway by end of March 2001, while honoring its basic principles of symbiosis with the surrounding community, regional development and airport development as integral elements of the project.
