ADAC to take urgent steps to increase capacity

James Bennett, the chief executive of Abu Dhabi Airport Co (ADAC) has said the firm plans to take urgent steps to extend the capacity of its main international airport as passenger numbers grow quicker than expected and contracts are still to be let for the proposed midfield terminal, Arabian Aerospace has reported. Despite work in refurbishing and growing the processing areas of Terminal 1 and the opening of Terminal 3, it would be "a real challenge" to meet the growth demand, he said.
