We are just a few months away from the new airport terminal opening up. The $1.5 billion project will wrap up and give Pittsburgh a new landside terminal. At this point, the new terminal is about 80% complete. As the construction continues, the hope is to have this up and ready to go by about the September/October time frame.

While it may look chaotic with wires, steel, and drywall all around, it’s coming together as planned. The new front door of Pittsburgh takes travelers into the 21st century. There is a emphasize on nature, from the beams designed to look like trees, constellation lights and natural light pouring in. There will be 12 TSA lanes for passengers and 1 for employees. It’s designed with technology so you will not have to remove liquids and laptops. This spring the equipment for the security checkpoint is expected to be installed.
