Murcia's President Valcárcel, has insisted that Corver Airport is "about to open", and will have 2 million passengers travelling to it every year.
The figure given - way in excess of the busiest ever year for arrivals at San Javier Airport - will be achived as soon as Spain has left the crisis, he claims.
Valcarcel went on to say how operations at San Javier were being restricted due to the airport having to reconcile Military and Civilian operations.
With San Javier being under the responsibility of the General Air Academy (AGA), which trains military pilots, the priority is undertandably given over to Military operations. "This means that, from 8am until 4pm there is no way we can assume availability of slots at the airport".
When asked why these difficulties had not been faced by other airport projects in Spain, the President answered that the situation was a unique one, and due to the proximity of both airports and the involvement of both the Ministries of Defence and Development.
