At the end of 2003, focusing on the development of ports and the protection of international flights, the government decided to conduct a comprehensive renovation and expansion. This project was completed in July 2005. Included in the renovation were 6,000 m² (65,000 sq ft) of the International Hall and 13,000 m² (140,000 sq ft) of the domestic hall, with a new construction area of 3,000 m² (32,000 sq ft). An overall transformation of the terminal's appearance was accomplished.

Airport Road has become a bridge connecting the city with the airport's Landscape Avenue.
