Master Plan

Master Plan consultation July 2008.  Published October 2009.

 Key details of Master Plan:

http://www.exeter-airport.co.uk/masterplan

“The Airport forecasts that passenger traffic will grow from the 1.05 million
passengers per annum (mppa) handled in 2007 to 1.9 mppa in 2015 and 3.4 mppa in 2030.

This growth will be achieved through an improved network and increased frequency
of services with Air Traffic Movements (ATMs) growing from 18,600 in 2007 to 24,750 in 2015 and 38,000 in 2030.”

“As the Exeter route network develops it is likely that hold cargo will increase.
Whilst this Draft Master Plan does not assume that Exeter International will become
a major cargo distribution centre, appropriate development will take place as
demand for air cargo increases, including the provision of transit, storage and
distribution facilities that will complementthe adjacent Inter Modal Freight Exchange
to be developed to the north-east of the Airport”.

“To enable growth and development; the Airport will need to expand outside of
its current operational boundary.   Consequently this Draft Master Plan indicates
expansion into land to the south east of the current airport boundary.”
