Leeds Bradfords Building Proposal for New Terminal and Flight Times
Official representatives of Leeds Bradford Airport alongside Leeds City councillors have recently revealed Leeds Bradfords building proposal to the general public regarding the construction of a new terminal and an increase of flight times at Leeds Bradford Airport.
Building Proposal
The announcement took place at Parkway Mercure Hotel where they told the public that plans for a new £150 million terminal had been revamped, with printouts suggesting that it would be a “State of the art building, that would significantly improve the experience for everyone”. In the meantime, this extension of the airport has also prompted the proposal of extended flight times from 7am-11pm to 6am-11:30pm.
