PDX Construction Updates PDX Construction Updates

Hello. We're glad you're here. If you haven't flown in a while, you'll notice that PDX looks a little different; that's because 60% of our new main terminal opened in August 2024, and the other 30% is now under construction (opening in early 2026).

Here's what you need to know:

  • Walking distances from gates B and E are longer.

    To guide everyone safely around the construction of the main terminal at PDX, walking distances from Gates B and E will double through early 2026. Mobility assistance is available to everyone. Call 503-460-4300.

Some more useful tips

  • Arrive a little early. Take more time to get to your gate. (We recommend two hours for domestic flights and three hours for international flights, but travelers should also check with their airlines.) You might want to arrive even earlier to enjoy all the new shops and restaurants!
  • Looking for coffee or a snack before going through security? Peet's Coffee & Tea and Your Northwest Travel Mart are in Baggage Claim, and The Country Cat, Portland Coffee Roasters and Loyal Legion have new locations just past the ticket counters.
  • Expect to see: lots of construction workers hard at work.
  • Why is all this happening? We are bringing to life these new designs for PDX. The new main terminal opened in August 2024 and the next phase of the project will end in early 2026.

 


Construction map

Visit our airport map, which highlights some of the changes in the ticket lobby and when going through security. The concourse connector, or shortcut between concourses after security, has reopened, but you'll still save time by following the signs to the security checkpoint associated with your gate.
