Tbilisi International Airport (Georgian: თბილისის საერთაშორისო აეროპორტი) (IATA: TBS, ICAO: UGTB)[1] is a main international airport in Georgia located near the capital Tbilisi.

In February 2007, the reconstruction project was finished. The project consisted of construction of a new international terminal, car park, improvements to the apron, taxiway and runway and acquisition of ground handling equipment at Tbilisi International Airport. George W. Bush Avenue leads from the airport to downtown Tbilisi.[2]

The Tbilisi International Airport is a product of a contemporary and functional design, boasting high technology. The airport, designed to provide the optimum flow of both passengers and luggage from the parking lot to the planes with a 25,000 square meter total usable area has the ability and flexibility to easily facilitate future expansions without interrupting terminal operations. It has been fitted with high-tech contemporary systems, keeping passenger convenience and efficiency of the terminal operations in mind, throughout functional spaces organized in an elegant manner. The Food and Beverage operations at the Tbilisi International Airport are carried out by BTA at 7 points with a staff of 75, while ATU provides Duty Free services at its four stores.[3]

The implementing agency and the borrower for the project is TAV Urban Georgia, a concessionaire and SPV for the construction and operation of Tbilisi International Airport.

The total project cost was USD90.5 million.
