Zvartnots International Airport
From Armeniapedia.org
Yertughayin Taxi #201 connects the airport with the crossroads of Sayat Nova and Mashtots streets in Yerevan. All departing passengers must pay the airport tax of 10.000 AMD (approxrimately $25 USD) at the exchange booth before check-in.
In 2005, 1,111,400 passengers used Zvartnots airport. In 2006, that number went up to 1,125,700 passengers, representing an increase of 1.3%
Future expansion
In 2004 the construction of a new international terminal began. The new passenger terminal will cost $50 million and will be carried out in three stages within three to four years. It began 90 days after the Government ratified the project. The building of this terminal is part of an agreement signed by the Armenian Government in December 2001 leasing the Yerevan Zvartnots airport for 30 years to the Argentine-American company "Corporation America", owned by Argentine-Armenian businessman Eduardo Eurnekian. The blue print for the re-design of the entire airport envisages investments of $59 million and a timeline of about eight years. The total value of investments into Zvartnots is estimated to be $80-100 million.
On September 14, 2006 the newly built arrivals hall was opened for service. The new international terminal with its departures section opened in the spring of 2007, though check in is still at the old terminal.
