Delta in terminal upgrades

Major developments have been announced by Delta Air Lines for its terminals at Los Angeles International and New York LaGuardia International. 

In Los Angeles, Delta is relocating from Terminals 5 and 6 to Terminals 2 and 3, which it also plans to connect via a central complex, while at LaGuardia, the airline is partnering with the Port Authority to replace Terminals C and D.

The Los Angeles development marks the first steps in a US$1.9bn plan to upgrade and connect Terminals 2 and 3 over the next seven years, allowing Delta ultimately to build prime space for its Los Angeles operations alongside its airline partners. 

The new space will house a private Delta One check-in lounge, new Delta Sky Clubs, fast check-in for Delta Shuttle services and an integrated in-line baggage system. 

In New York, the new terminal will consist of 37 gates in four concourses connected by a centralised check-in lobby, security checkpoint and baggage claim. 

There will also be a new Delta Sky Club, wider concourses, and larger gate rooms with more seating, plus direct access between the parking garage and terminal, improved roadways in drop-off and pick-up areas and kerbside check-in.
