New Cargo Facility
A 40,000 square foot cargo facility will be completed by 4th Quarter 2007 at Gulfport-Biloxi International Airport. The cargo facility includes 20,000 square feet of chiller space, 20,000 square feet of cargo sorting and distribution space, and 6,000 square feet of office space.
Airside access from the runway system has been designed with safety and efficiency in mind. The ramp can facilitate two MD11s or DC10s or one B747. The area is also expandable with 120 acres reserved for air cargo on airport.
In addition to the new cargo facility, a temporary facility will open in December, accepting belly hold cargo and relieving some of the traffic in the terminal. Customers will be able to drop and pick up their packages at this facility located just off Airport Road next to the Tower without having to enter the terminal building.
Coming 2007
