Increasing airport capacity and flexibility
The modernization of Dallas Love Field was meant to reshape a 50-year-old facility into a long-term hub for one of the largest US carriers. Completed just 10 years ago, the facility has already reached its planned long-term ultimate capacity. We will explore the differences that arose between the original design and activity projections versus the reality of actual growth. We will also explore whether the outcomes of the modernization project itself influenced the subsequent use by the airline. This will be a valuable exploration of the lessons learned in this groundbreaking project.
- The importance of airport/airline collaboration for projecting future growth
- The value of time spent evaluating the details of future growth projections
- A case study of the resurgence in US domestic travel post-Covid
- How project outcomes can influence future growth and use
- How changes in the airline industry can affect predominately single-carrier airports
