The Region of Murcia's Minister of Culture and Tourism, Pedro Alberto Cruz, has finally publically admitted that the International Airport of Murcia will not be operational before the summer.
However, Cruz told Europa Press that the Airport will definitely open, and that the regional government is doing all it can to ensure that this happens without delay.
"At the moment the date for opening is undecided, but it will not be this summer", the Minister explained, "we are all working hard to remove the delays."
Cruz has gained an unenviable reputation with the Spanish press and local residents of Murcia due to his many platitudes and self-imposed yet missed deadlines concerning both the Corvera Airport and Paramount Pictures Theme Park Projects.

David, I had not thought of the Torrevieja (etc) factor and that ALC is better than Corvera for them!
For those of us south of Cartagena, San Javier is best. In fact it's heaven. On the AP7 I simply KNOW it's going to take me 40 minutes to get there, plus or minus nothing. And it's such a gentle little airport.
The journey to Corvera would be OK. But Alicante, we would hate!
Mr Grumpy, you're right! And even if Ryanair went to Corvera, they are not going to pay much. And certainly not enough for the airport to make any money out of their operation. Mr O'Leary certainly knows how to screw the airports.
Corvera was yet another project dreamed up as a cash cow for those participating. It was nothing to do with fulfilling a need in the area. Don't get me started!
