Dallas Fort Worth International Airport Opens Renovated Section of Terminal E, Gates E11-17

"When our customers arrive at Terminal E, they will certainly notice significant progress and activity as a result of our TRIP renovations," said Khaled Naja, DFW Airport's executive vice president of Airport Development and Planning. "Our focus has been on delivering a superior customer experience – from easily finding a parking space with our parking guidance system to convenient check-in processing and a variety of concession options before boarding."

A pre-security concession, Southwest News, near baggage claim E13/14 opened today, and new gate amenities include upgraded seating and charging tables for passengers. In addition, passengers now have more choices in food, beverage, retail and service offerings with the following concessions:

• E11 – Love Shack (Chef Tim Love's Fort Worth Burger Joint)
• E12 – Marshall-Rousso (Retail - Women's Accessories)
• E13 – Sonny Bryan's (Dallas Smokehouse Barbecue)
• E15 – Texas Marketplace (Texas themed gifts)
• E16 – InMotion Entertainment (Retail – Electronics)

Phase four of the renovation work at Terminal E begins next month, renewing gates E2 through E10, adding more concessions and enhancing an additional section of terminal parking. This final phase of construction is expected to be complete late 2017.

During construction, DFW Airport is recommending passengers departing from Terminal E to arrive early and to review available Airport parking options and terminal navigation before arriving onsite. The portion of the parking garage directly across from gates E18 through E32 has closed for renovations and will reopen in 2017.

Onsite parking will remain available in the garage across from gates E2 through E10 and serve as overflow. Passengers parking in this lot will need to use an outdoor walkway to enter the terminal at E14. Additional Terminal Link shuttles also will be available to mitigate construction efforts and deliver passengers to operational sections of Terminal E. The Airport offers a variety of parking services, including valet at Terminal E and Express Parking with shuttle pickup and convenient drop off at terminal entrances.

"We understand renovations can sometimes cause inconvenience for our customers, so we're working to help ease this transition while work continues on terminal enhancements, new concessions, amenities and parking facilities," Naja said. "With the completion of TRIP, DFW Airport customers will enjoy some of the most convenient, enhanced airport terminals in the world."
