Panel discussion: Planning for the long term for airports and airlines

18 Mar 2026
Airport design, planning and development
What happens when your airport continues setting enplanement growth records and has already implemented several major capital improvement programs (BNA Vision and New Horizons), maximizing terminal facilities and gates? Layer on top of that, the majority shareholder airline partner wants to substantially grow its operation at your airport, to become a major focus in its service network. How do airports and airlines plan for continued growth when existing terminal infrastructure has been completely built out? The Metropolitan Nashville Airport Authority is looking ahead to the future and discussing options with partners, like Southwest Airlines. Is the answer Terminal II?
  • Planning for future growth: learn what types of considerations need to occur when an airport plans for a second terminal
  • Program timing to meet growth needs: understand strategies for keeping up with airport and airline growth needs when a second terminal is needed
  • Stakeholder collaboration: explore how airlines approach their airport partners to discuss growth plans and how that informs airport planning
  • Future airports and innovation: what future considerations need to be a part of planning for a future second terminal at an existing airport
  • Increasing airport capacity and flexibility: discover how existing airports that are site constrained plan for added gates and future flexibility
