A new runway (15/33) to the west of the current runway is being planned, and will be 2,600 metres in length to accommodate larger aircraft such as the Airbus A380 and Boeing 747. Once built, the older (current) runway will become a taxiway. There are also plans for a new terminal to be built (and likely replace the current departure and arrival buildings). This project will be completed by 2015.
The headquarters of Ewa Air are located on the airport property.
