Swiss airport expansion

BUSINESS AIRPORT ST GALLEN-ALTENRHEIN (ACH), which is the most easterly of Switzerland’s eight airports, is building a new terminal with the target opening date 24 months away.  The airport is at 1,300ft, has a single 1500m runway and is served four times weekdaily by a 75-minute Austrian Airlines Dash 8 Q400 service to Vienna.  It is in effect the airport for Liechtenstein.  The new terminal will take the present and future security regulations into account, as well the changed customer handling procedures resulting from Switzerland becoming part of the Schengen Treaty.  The airport expects a rise in both scheduled and executive traffic with the opening of the terminal. www.airport-stgallen.com
