Birmingham Airport released a draft £2 billion Master Plan covering 2026‑2041 that aims to lift annual passenger numbers to about 30 million by 2041, more than double the 13.65 million handled in 2025.
The plan also targets a rise in aircraft movements from under 100 000 in 2025 to roughly 180 000 by 2041, a 60 % increase in terminal area, expansion of aircraft stands from 42 to between 70 and 75, and growth in air‑freight volumes to around 90 000 tonnes annually. An eight‑week public consultation starts on 16 October 2026, with a final plan expected in early 2027.
