Cork Airport has progressed construction works on its new mezzanine floor and holiday blue car park extension, with both projects scheduled for completion in late 2026. CEO Niall McCarthy toured the construction sites with design partners Martina Finn, Managing Director of AtkinsRéalis Ireland, and Senior Project Manager Martin O’Sullivan of Atkins. The new mezzanine floor is on schedule to open on time and on budget in December 2026, while the holiday blue car park extension is due for completion by the end of October 2026.
The quality of work being undertaken at the airport is of a high standard, and the travelling public in Munster will benefit substantially from these works. The projects represent a significant investment in the airport’s infrastructure, enhancing passenger experience and operational capacity. Cork Airport serves as a key gateway for the south of Ireland, handlingms of passengers annually across domestic and international routes.
The airport’s ongoing development programme reflects the broader growth in Irish aviation, with passenger numbers continuing to recover and expand following the pandemic period. The new mezzanine floor is expected to provide additional space for passenger amenities and retail offerings, while the extended car park will address growing demand for parking facilities at the airport. Cork Airport’s management has confirmed that all construction activities are proceeding according to schedule and within the allocated budget.
Niall McCarthy, Cork Airport CEO, shared: We look forward to opening our new mezzanine floor on time and on budget in December of this year and our holiday blue car park extension before then by end October.
Martina Finn, Managing Director of AtkinsRéalis Ireland, shared: We are proud of the quality of work being undertaken and the travelling public in Munster will benefit hugely from these works.
