Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) this week opened four gates in its new Terminal A Pier Expansion. The expansion adds 140,000 square feet to the existing Terminal A footprint. Last week, American Airlines began operating out of the new gates, which are the first four of 10 total gates planned for the expansion. The full pier expansion is expected to be open for the upcoming winter holiday travel season.
The pier area includes wider thoroughfares for customer flow, taller ceilings, brighter windows, intuitive wayfinding and will also feature new concessions, updated restrooms and upgraded passenger amenities, adding to a more modern and improved customer experience and journey.
The Terminal A Pier Expansion is part of a multi-year capital plan that includes ongoing expansions and improvements across DFW. Once complete, the Terminal A Pier Expansion will total 10 brand-new gates that includes five rebuilt gates and a net gain of five new gates.
