Work will continue to 2020 and the focus will be on increasing check-in and transit travel capacity and on improving traffic arrangements. Â Helsinki Airport is expected to have 20 million passengers each year in the early 2020s.
The development programme will start in Terminal 2 with improvements in the check-in area. At the same time, more detailed design work will start and final decisions on priorities concerning the new facilities will be made.
Âé¶¹Éç of the new infrastructure is expected to start in 2015. One option being considered by Finavia -  the company responsible for Finland's airports and air navigation services - is the construction of a satellite terminal adjacent to Terminal 2. Finavia is also planning to extend Terminal 2 into the areas of car parks P1 and P2.
A Finnish government investment of €200m in Finavia will allow work to start on the development programme.
