I wonder about the addition of showers. Not sure how that works in airports in other places. They provide towels or something?? It doesn't say anything about the Souliga Lounge, but I surely hope that comes back. It would make sense if they integrated showers into that somehow.

Yeah, I saw that. Pretty funny, considering the hurricane was 2017...

I love how they keep saying 2014 instead of 2024. I saw that too but gave them a pass.

These people are looking at this through rose colored glasses. These photos are the same ones as last year!!I've never seen a construction job that has taken this long!! Talk about milking the cow!!! Is it me? Am I the only one that gets the jitters walking up that makeshift plankway to the food court level???? I don't trust any of their skill set level to build anything!! 2014? 2024? Try 2048!!!
Sand Gravity, got to love it!

The usual aircraft still arrive and depart, it is the interior that is most impacted and the experience with check-in, boarding, etc. It is functioning enough that I would not cancel a trip. I have one in March and just know I will have to deal with some inconveniences upon arrival and departure.

280z--the airport is perfectly safe. To ME, the major inconvenience is that there are no operating jetways. To those without mobility issues, that is not a big deal. Go! Enjoy!

The actual construction didn't start until they eliminated the sticky fingers from the project which was less than a year ago. Personally, I seriously doubt all the "sticky fingers" have been eliminated as the same person is still in charge.
