Five of the major airlines serving Pittsburgh International Airport have signed long-term leases for the new 700,000-sq-ft landside terminal, clearing the way for heavy construction on the pandemic-delayed $1.4-billion modernization program to get underway later this summer.
The airlines’ commitment enables the Allegheny County Airport Authority to secure bond financing and begin procurement of structural steel, foundations, underground utilities and other construction packages for the new terminal, which will consolidate ticketing, security checkpoints and baggage claim operations.
