New look unveiled at Knock airport

Work has just been completed on the first phase of Ireland West Airport’s €15m facilities investment plan – aimed at further improving the customer experience for passengers and transforming the airport over the next three years.
Over €4.5m has been invested in the first phase of improvements, which have been underway for the past 18 months covering new passenger facilities, terminal upgrades and infrastructural works across the airport facility and runway
The airport continues to invest, with the support of the Department of Transport, Department of Community and Rural Affairs, local authority stakeholders and customers – through their development fee contributions.
This has enabled the airport to reinvest in upgrading its facilities whilst ensuring compliance with Irish Aviation Authority requirements from a safety, security and operational perspective.
The first phase has seen the construction and re-modelling of new toilet facilities at the airport; the re-modelling of immigration and arrivals area creating increased circulation space for arriving passengers, and the provision of covered aircraft passenger boarding stairs for passengers boarding and disembarking aircraft.
