Overview

• About 5,000 people toured the new Terminal 1 during Sunday’s open house, according to airport spokesperson Nicole Hall.
• The terminal is slated to begin service in late September, with reports citing either Sept. 22 or Sept. 23 for the first day of operations.
• Visitors highlighted spacious gate areas, a single security checkpoint, plentiful seating and charging, a terrace, public art, a pet relief room, and local restaurants.
• The project spans roughly one million square feet and carries a price tag of about $3.8 billion, reflecting a decade-long effort to modernize the facility.
• Airport officials used the preview to test passenger flows and gather feedback, as the existing Terminal 1 is reported to be nearing demolition.
