The Avram Iancu Cluj International Airport, an autonomous authority under the Cluj County Council, as a beneficiary of non-reimbursable funds through the Large Infrastructure Operational Program 2014-2020 and the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure, as the Intermediate Body for Transport, signed on 6 April 2023, Financing Agreement No. 219/06.04.2023 for the implementation of the project "Extension passenger departures terminal on the North side".

The overall objective of the project is to expand the departure terminal by approximately 7.200 square meters and the aircraft stand by almost 9.000 square meters, which will lead to increased processing capacity and passenger comfort. The new spaces will be equipped with state-of-the-art security devices of the C3 standard type, with two boarding gates for external flights and one boarding gate for domestic flights to be built.

With the completion of the works, the management of the flow of passengers in the congested time slots, especially at peak times, will be optimized, with the carrying out of the airport activity in appropriate conditions. In the new configuration, the departure terminal and the extended aircraft parking platform meet the needs of the growing passenger traffic, but also the higher number of flights expected for the next period.
