Few things at major hub airports are more important to busy travelers than smooth connections between flights. So it’s appropriate that Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC) has achieved a barely detectable handoff between the first and second phases of its decade-long $4.5-billion redevelopment program.

The Salt Lake City International Airport (SLCIA) Terminal Redevelopment is a $4.1-billion investment that replaced the city’s old airport with a LEED Gold certified and operationally improved facility.

Opening of Concourse B closes the city's 60-year-old airport building, marking completion of Phase 1 of its $4.1-billion terminal replacement program.

Despite an earthquake, a pandemic and design changes, the first phase of Salt Lake City International Airport’s (SLC) $4.1-billion upgrade opened to passengers on time on Sept. 15.
