Thats not a new airport, but a renovation of the existing Francisco Sa Carneiro airport, and no, the constructions in the airport will not be complet in time to Euro 2004, thats why some aircrafts will will parked, they will land in Porto airport and then moved to, Air Force bases.
The TGV new railway is still in tha paper, but there are some Government VIPs that want a connection betweem Francisca Sa Carneiro airport and TGV station, for now you can rent a Ferrari and drive from Porto to Galicia at high speed:p
I thought the old terminal had been pulled down. I hope they keep the spectator area (despite the smoked glass fence). A Ferrari in Spanish motorways????. I would be taken my driving license inmediately…..speed control are getting tough around here. Anyway, it takes less than two hours get there in my old VW. I just asked that because in Galicia many people uses OPO airport and eager for the TGV link as soon as possible. Only in an hour the whole drive to Saa Carneiro. The Galician side of the TGV is quite advanced in terms of works.

Don’t count on it being that design.
I’ve been working with someone, who has been working with TAP to come up with logojet.
Nothing has been finialised yet.
