Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport expansion

Overview

The Spanish government has approved an 830 million euro investment for the Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport as part of the third Airport Regulation Document (DORA III). This funding is part of a larger 13 billion euro national investment plan by Aena scheduled between 2027 and 2031.

The expansion aims to increase terminal space from 80,000 to 140,000 square meters, allowing the airport to accommodate up to 36 million passengers annually. This project addresses current capacity limits as the airport approaches its 30 million passenger ceiling. Planned infrastructure improvements include a new pier for non-Schengen flights with centralized passport control, increased aircraft stands, expanded security areas featuring advanced scanners, and a redesigned baggage system.

Málaga-Costa del Sol is Spain’s fourth busiest airport and serves as a major regional economic driver, supporting nearly 12,000 direct jobs and approximately 500 companies. Between January and August 2026, the airport handled nearly 20 million travelers, with peak daily activity in August averaging 100,000 users.
