Nov 05, 2012 (newstodate): Estonia's Tallinn Airport has decided put its plans for construction of a new low-cost terminal on hold.
The suspension of the plans follows on the current problems at Estonian Air that is now reconsidering its strategy in the wake of the abrupt replacement of its CEO from November 1, 2012.
On April 12, 2012 the airport announced its plans for a new low-cost terminal to serve carrier including Ryanair, Norwegian and easyJet as the existing facility would not be sufficient to handling of the annual passenger volumes now close to exceeding two mio.
The plans called for a modular terminal, initially with five gates and start of construction from early 2013.
One million passenger would be handled by the low-cost terminal, freeing the existing terminal to focus on legacy carriers, primarily Estonian Air that has so far accounted for 40 percent of the airport's passenger volumes.
Replacing Tero Taskila, Estonian Air is now managed by Jan Palm�r that leans on a recent record as last CEO of the now bankrupt airlines Cimber Sterling as well as Skyways.
