American Airlines, DFW Airport strike deal to build new US$3b terminal

Dallas Fort Worth International and chief tenant American Airlines have agreed to build a sixth passenger terminal, the first such expansion at the region's economic driver since 2005. They'll also update Terminal C, which opened with the airport in 1974 and is the only original terminal that has not been renovated. Together, the projects will cost up to US$3.5b, and Terminal F could open by 2025, officials said Monday. The improvements and investments, contemplated for several years, double down on some of the most important infrastructure in the state. The new terminal will have up to 24 gates, which will address increasing congestion at DFW as well as future growth opportunities for American and over two dozen other airlines. DFW has more than 1,000 daily departures to 250 cities. <br/>
