Jersey Airport Terminals
The 1937 terminal was constructed with a control tower between the arrivals and departures areas. The building was extended in 1976. A new departures terminal adjoining the current terminal was opened in 1997. A new air traffic control tower was finished and opened in late 2010, and all primary airport operations have been shifted to these new buildings.
Work was expected to start late 2011 to demolish the original airport building built in 1937 and which contains large amounts of asbestos. Still, work was never undertaken as the building was chosen as a protected historical building. Ultimately, on 17 March 2014, it was decided on the grounds of aviation security, that the old building would have to be demolished.
Jersey represents a part of the Common Travel Area, which means that there are limited identity card checks before boarding a flight to the U.K. or Ireland. A full passport check takes place when traveling to or from other countries.
