Beginning May 1, the airline ticketing counters for Allegiant, Frontier Airlines, and Breeze Airways will be moving to Terminal B. Wayfinding signage around the airport will be in place to guide travelers. Additionally, MEM employees and volunteers will continue to be positioned throughout the terminals to assist passengers.
At the March 20 meeting of the Memphis-Shelby County Airport Authority (MSCAA) Board of Commissioners meeting, design consultants UrbanArch and Alliiance provided an update on Memphis International Airport’s Terminal Modernization and Seismic Program (TMSP).
Work on the interim commercial drive is underway on the lower outer drive. The project is expected to be completed in April 2025. To accommodate the construction, coach buses have been moved from the upper/outer drive to the upper/inner drive. Shuttle buses and limos have been relocated from the lower/outer drive to the lower/middle drive.
Work continues on our initial phase of the impending Terminal Modernization and Seismic Program (TMSP), specifically the creation of a new commercial ground transportation lane along the south end of the short-term garage outside baggage claim. Starting Monday, December 9, the lower outer commercial drive on the baggage level will be closed, and all traffic will be directed to the inner and middle lanes. The primary impact of this closure will be for coach buses and MATA operations.
Preliminary work has begun on the creation of a new commercial ground transportation lane on the baggage claim level of the short-term parking garage. This phase of the project will not have a significant impact on passengers, though pedestrians will be required to cross the street at crosswalks only. Once completed, ground transportation services will be relocated to this new lane.
