The Montenegrin government has announced plans to upgrade Podgorica and Tivat airports ahead of the 2027 summer season, following significant capacity constraints this year on the back of record traffic. Prime Minister Milojko Spaji\u0107 said the works would include expanded terminal facilities, additional gates and runway improvements, with authorities aiming to have the first upgrades completed before next summer. An interinstitutional coordination body, headed by the Prime Minister, will be established to accelerate the projects and remove administrative, planning, property and financial obstacles.<\/p>\n

At the same time, the government will commission a new ten-year Master Plan for the two airports. At Podgorica, longer-term projects envisaged under the plan include a new terminal, reconstruction and expansion of the apron and the reconstruction and extension of the runway to enable the handling of wide-body aircraft. At Tivat, plans include a new terminal, apron and taxiway, as well as a comprehensive runway reconstruction. The government said the existing infrastructure at both airports had long exceeded its intended capacity.<\/p>\n
