Dallas/Fort Worth International (DFW) CEO Sean Donohue announces that the airport is to work with American Airlines to develop a sixth terminal, which is expected to be operational by 2025.
DFW will invest from US$3bn-US$3.5bn in terminal improvements, including the construction of Terminal F and enhancements to Terminal C. The identified site south of Terminal D provides flexibility for phasing in the number of gates for Terminal F, with a long-term projection of up to 24 gates, according to demand for additional facilities.
“Today’s (May 20) announcement sets the stage for DFW Airport’s next 50 years,” Donohue said. “The new Terminal F and the expansion that could follow will provide the region with the growth it needs to compete with international business centers.”
