I'll spare you pictures of the gate areas as they are exactly the same as what we've already got. Seats and equipment are installed and ready to go at the 4 south-facing gates scheduled to open in August.

Here's a shot of one of the rows of Concession space, nothing is open yet in the new area.


The information screens have an actual map underneath them.


For reference here's what they look like on the other half of the Concourse.


I really don't like the screen with a QR code to scan for a full map, adds unnecessary complication. Hope they bring the maps to the existing areas.

Here's some shots of the North Concourse and Node from the Terminal Plaza.


Node.


Concourse.


I still believe that Restrooms are the most underrated aspect of the new airport, they are huge and pretty much everywhere. Massive stalls with room for luggage, I can't think of another airport with this good of a bathroom game.

The long walk is pretty mild compared to other airports. I'm still sore about LAX's pushing of regular carriers to the new West Gates, the walk connecting the JetBlue codeshare to Hawaii from SLC is ~1.25 miles. Not only is our walk situation not that bad, it isn't permanent.

The trend has continued that every flight I’ve had in and out since they opened have been through the new gates.
