The first I visited this airport was in February 2006. I came back twice, the last time in August 2007. I must say that it improved rather a lot. It felt much more cleaner and re-structured in a more logical way. Customs are very precise, but friendly, and all the rest of the personell is friendly anyway. It does not have all the comforts of European airports, but it is getting better.
