Construction would overlap with ongoing Terminal B renovations.
With a massive multi-billion-dollar transformation underway at Terminal B in Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport, plans are in the pipeline for the expansion of yet another terminal.
A $5.4-million development is planned for IAH's Terminal C—a project set to begin on Feb. 3, 2026, and wrap up by mid-July, according to a filing submitted by the airport to the Texas Department of Licensing and Registration in December. The expansion will encompass 17,000 square feet.
Titled "Facilities Space Centralization Project," the buildout will include new office space and shop space in the exterior lower ramp level storage area under the concourse, according to the filing. New restrooms, a new breakroom, and locker rooms are also detailed.
Terminal C construction would be concurrent with the $2.55-billion renovation currently underway at Terminal B in IAH. However, United Airlines has said the Terminal C project is not customer-facing and is not expected to affect passenger access, flight schedules, or traffic during construction.
