We're excited to announce that our plans to modernize and expand the airport are getting started!
As part of our long-range plan to upgrade our terminal, build an additional concourse, and expand parking options, we are starting work to replace the airport escalators.
The work will begin on the "down" escalator in early February and last throughout the spring. Work on the "up" escalator will begin in the fall. We are hoping to avoid the escalators being out of service during the busy summer season.
In the meantime, plan ahead and use the elevators or the steps, and give yourself some extra time to get to baggage claim or to your ride from the airport.
Click here to read about this update, and stay tuned for more updates on this and other exciting projects to modernize our airport. Remember, we're glad you choose to fly with us, and we want to make sure you can Fly Easy.

That's right...your favorite place to "Eat Mor Chikin" at Pensacola International Airport is back open!
After closing last fall for renovations and kitchen upgrades, we're happy to announce that Chick-fil-A is back open and serving customers. The new facility is intended to serve a wider range of Chick-fil-A menu options, as well as offer a more efficient dining experience for customers.
Just what other menu options will the new Chick-fil-A offer? You'll have to stop by to find out!
