Expected to serve the regional jets, the new and the existing gates will include spaces with more seating configured with slots to power electronic devices. The gates will also feature improved wayfinding signage.

“We’re excited to extend some of those same enhancements to Terminal E’s satellite gates, delivering more consistent aesthetics and amenities for our customers.”

Air and electrical systems, carpeting, surfaces and jet bridges will also be upgraded.

The upgrades will also involve the inclusion of new conveyance systems including elevators and moving sidewalks to be used by customers to access the satellite area from the main Terminal E concourse.

DFW Airport infrastructure and development executive vice-president Khaled Naja said: “As DFW continues to attract more air service and more customers, we are embarking on a mission to deliver more gates to meet the growing demand.
