South Korea plans to spend about Won4,000bn ($3.1bn, €2.2bn, £1.9bn) by 2015 to expand Incheon International Airport – already voted the world’s best for its high-tech facilities.
The government plans to add a new passenger terminal and expand its cargo terminal, roads and other infrastructure to help the airport handle 41 per cent more passengers a year and 29 per cent more cargo by 2015. Incheon’s expansion will be funded with the airport’s operating profit.
