Impact Updates

The entire project (for both sides of the Terminal) is expected to last until just prior to Labor Day weekend of 2026.

UPDATE – July 19, 2026

Island 3 East is closed. Shuttle transportation from the Terminal to select hotels and off-airport parking on Level 5 East are unavailable through August 2, please access designated shuttles on the West side.
