Delta breaks ground on LaGuardia terminal expansion

Delta Air Lines, along with city, state and federal officials, broke ground on a $160m renovation and expansion of its facilities at New York LaGuardia Airport, on April 11th. The project, which includes a 630-foot connector bridge linking Terminals C and D, a new Delta Sky Club in Terminal C and expanded security lanes in both terminals, comes as Delta creates a new domestic hub at LaGuardia, with service to 26 new cities by July 11. It represents the largest expansion project at LaGuardia in more than 40 years. The new bridge will allow Delta customers to walk between terminals behind security, providing easy access to departure and arrival gates and facilitating convenient connecting flights. Delta has operated out of both terminals since March 25, when it began expanded service at LaGuardia. Delta’s renovations at LaGuardia will support 700 new jobs along with additional jobs for construction.
