Work on a new luxury terminal at DFW Airport is scheduled to begin in January 2025 following a significant delay.

"You're going to see planes launching behind you literally going to almost every continent in the world today from DFW," Donohue said. $1.6 billion will go toward creating the new terminal while the remaining $2.7 billion will be used for upgrades in terminals A and C.

Terminal F will not have its own security checkpoint, check-in area or baggage claim. Travelers will go through Terminal E, then take the Skylink. To handle the increased traffic, Terminal E will be expanded with an additional 100,000 square feet of security, check-in and baggage claim space.

Terminal F, a $1.6 billion project, will accommodate the region’s expected growth with 15 new gates and a Skylink rail station.
