The Port of Seattle Commission has approved the first step toward the multi-phase modernization of the main terminal at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) by approving construction funding and a new partnership that allows Alaska Airlines to manage this phase of the project.
Construction is set to begin in Q1 of 2022, followed by the beginning of Phase 2 construction in late Q4 of 2022. Estimated completion of Phase 1 is Q1 2023, with Phase 2 completing in Q2 2025.
Meanwhile, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ) announced it has reached a revised agreement with The New Terminal One (NTO) – a consortium of financial sponsors – to build a 2.4 million square foot state-of-the-art new international terminal that will anchor the south side of John F. Kennedy International Airport. The $9.5 billion project will follow the expansion of the airport’s Terminal 4, which commenced construction on December 15.
