Birmingham Airport has published a draft £2 billion Master Plan that aims to raise annual passenger numbers to around 30 million over the next 15 years.
The plan estimates it could generate £3.6 billion in gross value added for the West Midlands and create more than 50,000 jobs, including 3,800 airport‑based roles; the first phase could begin in 2027 with upgrades to baggage facilities, reconfiguration and addition of aircraft stands, terminal improvements and better surface access, while an eight‑week public consultation started on 16 October 2026 with 20 events and a feedback report is expected in 2027.
