I pulled my carry-on past the new restaurants and newsstands. My jaw dropped at Salt Lake City’s shiny new airport all the natural light pouring through the windows, bouncing off the porcelain benches and through the elaborate art installations on the walls. In October, Salt Lake City International will only see its year-on-year flying reduced by 15%, Travel Weekly reported, while other hubs elsewhere are seeing reductions of nearly 50%. I took my first flight in over a year in June. The pandemic has been kinder to Salt Lake City as Delta's gateway to the mountainous region where social distancing is more easily achieved. Two parallel east-west concourses aim to replace the airport's current pier layout where concourses radiate from a central terminal, allowing for more gates and less congestion in between concourses. With Delta accounting for around 70% of the airport's daily departures, it's no surprise that the new terminal layout resembles that of other Delta hubs in Detroit and Atlanta. Six years following its 2014 groundbreaking, the airport just opened the first part of the new terminal to the public on September 15.ĭelta Air Lines passengers were among the first to use the new facility - complete with a new Sk圜lub - as the carrier is the largest at the airport.
Salt Lake City International Airport is in the midst of a $4.1 billion reconstruction that will radically change the airport with a brand-new terminal and two new concourses. Account icon An icon in the shape of a person's head and shoulders.
