Despite concerns from tour operators and hoteliers, the US$86.4
million expansion project for Laos’ Luang Prabang Airport will
proceed as planned. There were fears that the project will
affect the appeal of the nearby UNESCO World Heritage Site, but
the Lao National Tourism Administration has explained that due
to budget constraints, they are not able to build a new airport
outside the city. The expansion project includes a new
9,800-square-metre passenger terminal and a new 3,000-metre
runway that will be able to accommodate Boeing 737 and Airbus
A320 aircraft. The project is expected to be completed by 2013. |
