Delta will move its operations to LAX Terminals 2 and 3 from Terminals 5 and 6 in mid-May, forcing 19 other carriers to relocate during what is expected to be a hectic five-day period. Delta officials are describing the move, which starts May 12 and is expected to wrap up May 17, as the biggest relocation operation in airport history. They say they are trying to minimize disruptions by getting the word out to travelers and transportation companies, beefing up staffing to direct lost passengers and conducting extensive planning for the massive logistical operation. “It is a big thing,” said Ranjan Goswami, vice president of sales for Delta’s western division. “It is unprecedented.” Business travelers who routinely fly out of LAX say they hope they can avoid the airport during the move. “The bottom line is that it’s going to add to everyone’s stress,” said Jason Womack, a leadership speaker from Ojai who flies out of LAX about twice a month. “LAX police are going to be inundated with questions.” The move is meant to give Delta room to grow, adding seven extra gates and giving the carrier easier access to the airport’s international terminal and to Delta’s partners, including Aeromexico, Virgin Atlantic and WestJet. The Atlanta-based carrier is investing $1.9 billion over the next four years to upgrade its two new terminals.<br/>
