Plans

The airport underwent expansion in the 1970s to upgrade it to an international airport.[1]

A LD600 million contract was signed (20 May 2008) with a joint venture comprising Lebanon's CCC and a new Libyan investment and development company for a new passenger terminal at Sabha Airport. It would have a capacity of 3 million passengers, and, like the new terminals at Tripoli International and Benina International, be designed by Aéroports de Paris Engineering.[2] This development was not completed due to the Libyan Civil War.[3]

In March 2017, it was announced that the airport had reopened to commercial traffic after closing in 2014 due to the continuing civil war.[4]
