# GateToTheWorld. Craiova Airport is getting ready for 2 million passengers a year


Craiova International Airport has become one of the most important points of interest in recent years in the region, since Dolj County Council accessed European funds and made massive investments in this institution.

Now, Craiova Airport is undergoing a considerable new change: the expansion and modernization of the airport, which includes the construction of a new passenger terminal, the construction of parking lots and access roads, the construction of two new runways, the construction of a boarding-landing platform or construction of an aircraft de-icing platform.

Thus, Dolj's gateway to the world is preparing to receive about 2 million passengers annually.

Currently, Craiova Airport has destinations to countries such as the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Spain, and starting with October 21, a new charter flight with a weekly frequency will be operated from Craiova International Airport to Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The flights will be operated by the tour operator Cocktail Holidays through the local partners, with the airline Blue Air, between 21.10.2021 - 28.01.2022.
