It is expected to handle 25 million passengers and 1.2 million tonnes of cargo by 2025 in the first phase, which will include the construction of a runway, a terminal and auxiliary facilities.
In the second and third phases, more runways and terminals will be built to bring the total capacity to 100 million passengers and five million tonnes of cargo a year.
Total investment capital for the project is estimated at more than 16 billion USD, with 5.45 billion USD of the figure spent in the first phase.
