History
Being opened on 7 February 1964 as a naval air base of Indonesia, it replaced the previous airport in Morokrembangan, near Surabaya harbor. It was originally used as home base for Indonesian Navy's fleet of Ilyushin Il-28 and Fairey Gannet. In its development it was also used for civil aviation. And PT Angkasa Pura I handled the management and operation since January 1985. On 24 December 1990 Juanda Airport was gained international airport status after the opening of the international terminal. Previously, since December 1987, the airport has served flights to Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Taipei and Manila.[6] KLM began service to Surabaya in April 1996.[7] The carrier offered flights to Amsterdam via Singapore on Boeing 747s. The route ended in February 1997.[8]
Development of airport city
On 25 February 2015, Indonesia President Joko Widodo agreed to develop Juanda Airport City, including an additional two runways and an integrated connection between Gubeng railway station and the airport via an elevated railway.[9][10] About 6,000 hectares (15,000 acres) of land have been prepared for the expansion of the airport - where in 1,500 hectares (3,700 acres) will be used to construct two additional runways, and Juanda Airport's Terminal 3, while the remaining area will be used to construct the Airport City and the Ultimate Terminal Building.[11]
The new area for Juanda Airport is estimated to be 1,700 hectares (4,200 acres) and will be located in the northern part of the airport.[12] Construction of two runways by will require the reclamation of about 4 kilometers (2.5 miles) stretch of land along Java's northern coastline. The land acquisition is expected to be completed by 2018. Development consists of three phases;
- First phase is the confirmation of the masterplan, land acquisition, reclamation for runway 2 and construction of runway 2.
- Second phase is the development of Terminal 1, reclamation for runway 3, construction of runway 3 and accessibility from toll roads and terminal.
- Third phase will be building an Ultimate Terminal and airport city supporting infrastructure.[13]
