Qatar is on track to open its new US$14 billion (Dh51bn) international airport in 2011 as the world’s largest gas exporter looks to diversify government revenues and stimulate employment, an official said on Sunday.
Speaking at an aviation conference in Doha, Qatar, the chairman of the country’s civil aviation authority said the new airport would have capacity for 24 million passengers and cargo of 1.4 million tonnes a year.
“The new $14bn airport will be over 22 kilometres and open in 2011,” Adul Aziz Al Noaimi said.
