Singapore’s Seletar Airport to expand capacity
Singapore’s second airport and MRO hub, Seletar Airport, is to build a replacement Passenger Terminal Building to expand the facility’s handling capacity. Operator Changi Airport Group said construction is expected to begin in Oct 2016, with operation commencing in 2018. CAAS DG Kevin Shum said the upgrade would be a valuable complement to Singapore’s Changi Airport. “The new PTB will enhance the capacity of [Seletar] and will … enable more opportunities to thrive in Seletar Aerospace Park, reinforcing Singapore’s position as an … aviation hub,” he said. In 2015, Seletar saw some 80% of all flights operated by flying schools, but with the opening of the new PTB, all turboprop aircraft operations operating out of Changi will be required to move to Seletar. <br/>
