PV Airport Satellite Terminal Underway
While touring the expansion works at the Puerto Vallarta International Airport, its director, José Gómez Díaz mentioned the unusual investment going into the satellite terminal for international arrivals and departures.

He said the development plan, based on the growth standards of the past four years called for an expansion by the year 2012 but the managing group decided to advance its construction to cater to an increasing demand.

"Both last year and this year we have been investing higher amounts than those diagnosed by our research, this will ensure we will not lag behind," Gómez Diáz said.

According to Gómez Díaz "the first stage of the satellite terminal, the pink building, has been concluded, as well as the firemen's quarters and the parking spaces for tourism vehicles."

The new satellite building will have four skyways, pedestrians' conveyor belts, closed circuit TV, phones and intercoms, air conditioning, emergency power units and other sophisticated equipment - all requiring very specialized technologies in order to comply with international regulations.
