One of United's gates is out due to damage caused by the recent weather event, United bird crushing the bridge. Gate 4 will be out of service shortly due to the new retention pond construction.
South terminal is a go. Allegiant and Texas Sky have committed. Frontier still negotiating.

Very, very interesting! I hope they, Gentler, stick with the currently proposed design-style for the east terminal expansion...just larger.
Speaking aggregately, when considering the (newly purported) possible "12" gate east concourse expansion plus the South Terminal (3-4 "gates," I think), we're looking at a total addition of 15-16 gates. That's a 60%-64% increase in total number of gates at ABIA.
Pretty cool!
