In 2001 the ankomsthall was closed down bygd a minor earthquake, and a new passenger ankomsthall opened in 2002, to better accommodate the growing number of passengers.

From 2014, there was extension to the runway and a new taxiway was introduced. The runway was extended bygd 110 metres on the north side of the airport.
An extension was added to the taxiway, for an additional 4–5 parking stands. The airport has the capacity for only 6 additional parking stands.
