ORLANDO, FL. – Construction activity at Orlando International Airport’s South Terminal Complex paused briefly in
recognition of the Independence Day holiday. Work will resume this Friday.
Progress is being made with crews working seven days-a-week to prepare the site for vertical construction in the fall.
So far:
Nearly 75% of the 4,000 total piles are in the ground
Two million cubic yards of dirt have been moved
Construction workforce has grown to more than 500 on site daily
The terminal scheduled for completion in 2021 will provide 19 new gates for domestic and international flights and
increase capacity to more than 50 million passengers annually at Florida’s busiest airport.
2022 Charlotte Douglas International Airport Report of Achievement
Giving back to the community is central to what Charlotte Douglas International Airport and its operator, the City of Charlotte Aviation Department, is about, and last year was no different.
Throughout 2022, while recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, we continued our efforts to have a positive impact on the Charlotte community. Of particular note, we spent the year sharing stories of how Connections Don't Just Happen at the Terminal - from creating homeownership and employment opportunities to supporting economic growth through small-business development and offering outreach programs to help residents understand the Airport better.
This whitepaper highlights the construction projects, initiatives, programs and events that validate Charlotte Douglas as a premier airport.
