Presently, the terminal is handling anywhere from 10 - 15 arrivals and departures daily during non-peak periods, During peak periods, such as Easter week or Christmas, these numbers increase to 50 - 70 flights daily.
Two new hangars are added to the private terminal, one of which will accommodate the 737 jets of Aruban-based airline Tiara Air, which will commence daily commercial service to the U.S.
The South Side Apron is enlarged, allowing for more small planes to be tethered on the ground, fueling services from Valero is enlarged and more efficient, and there will be a formalized security center.
