Construction on the expansion of the South Building has been completed and the 1,900 square meter extension has been put into use. The expansion of the South Building includes improved facilities for passengers at the departure gate on both floors at the eastern end of the South Building.

This year, Keflavík Airport participated in DesignMarch for the first time with the exhibition “New connections are gaining ground”, which focused on the importance of innovation and collaboration in developing future solutions.

The first passengers passed through the new annex to the South Building of the airport terminal yesterday, April 15, when the so-called ORAT test of the passenger flow and infrastructure was carried out.

Bakað, a coffee house and artisanal bakery, has opened in the main dining and shopping area of Keflavik airport.

The development of Keflavík Airport and the ongoing construction there attracted considerable attention at the "Verk og vit" trade show, and the exhibition stand of Isavia, Kadeco and the municipalities of Reykjanesbær and Suðurnesjabær was well attended throughout.

The development in the use of 3D technology in design and construction management is so great and rapid that a new industry is emerging within the construction sector that is solely related to technology, equipment, and systems.

Developing and operating infrastructure at an international airport is a challenging task that relies on talented and ambitious staff who utilise the latest developments and technical solutions available in civil engineering.

Maren Lind Másdóttir, Chief Airport Development & Infrastructure Officer at Isavia, discussed the development of Keflavík Airport in an interview with Sýn news.

The arrivals area at Keflavík Airport is undergoing significant renovations. The area in question is one of the oldest unchanged areas of the terminal, but the airport's ever-expanding operations now call for changes.
