        Sheikh Sultan bin Mohammed bin Sultan Al Qasimi, The Crown Prince, Deputy Ruler and Chairman of

        the cornerstone of the New Passenger Terminal Expansion Project was laid at Sharjah Airport, the largest

        package of a series of expansion projects with a total cost of AED 2.4 billion. The terminal expansion is
        anticipated to increase the airport’s capacity to 20 million passengers, separate arrivals from departures and
        raise the number of self-check-in and self-travel devices. Furthermore, it will establish new roads and

        entrances, parking lots and other expansion and development operations, aiming to enhance the quality of its
        services and to elevate the travel experience of all passengers through Sharjah Airport.
