Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) – a Corporate Partner of the FTE Digital, Innovation & Startup Hub – has begun construction of the new Terminal F. The new terminal will feature a double-loaded concourse with 15 gates and a modernised customer amenities.
“The new Terminal F will expand the airport’s footprint with state-of-the-art facilities that align with our first-in-class customer experience and operation as we support the historic rise in air travel to and from the North Texas region,” said Sean Donohue, Chief Executive Officer, DFW. “By utilising modular construction techniques that we first pioneered with the High-C Gates, we will deliver Terminal F using technology at a scale that’s unique among airport development projects.”
DFW’s $1.6 billion Terminal F program will deliver an all-new experience for customers, featuring a 400,000-square-foot concourse. An expansion of Terminal E is also included in the program that will add more than 100,000 square feet of new check-in, security and baggage claim facilities dedicated to customers flying to or from Terminal F. Customers using Terminal F will check in at Terminal E and connect between both facilities with a quick one-terminal transfer via the airport’s Skylink system, which will welcome a new station above Terminal F when the terminal is anticipated to open in 2027.
Terminal F has been strategically designed for the future, setting DFW up for the ability to expand Terminal F with additional gates and other supporting facilities.
DFW proved the major benefits that modular construction brings to airports when it used the innovative technique to rebuild five gates in Terminal C in 2022. Now, DFW is taking the method to a new industry-leading scale with several terminal projects, including Terminal F. The Terminal F pre-fabrication site has already seen preparations where the modules will be built before being moved across the airfield for installation at the final terminal site.
