If those pictures are relatively recent, I would say there is no way in h*ll that they open on November 1. But we shall see.

The pictures started making their way around facebook yesterday. I am with you; I would not hold my breath on this as about anything and everything with the airport has hit a snag along the way and the same people are still in charge.
We can only hope and I would like to be wrong on my opinion.

Lesley--that's great that he is your friend, but I am just going based on those pictures. Unless they are planning on opening the departure area and not having any stores or services available in that area. November 1 is only about 60 days away. I would like to be wrong, as having the jetways operational is a big deal.

There is supposed to be the lounge, yes, but again, no way that would be operational by November 1. Yes, I miss that lounge also.

If those are old pictures, then hopefully it will actually happen in November. It doesn't make sense for them not to post new pictures, but I have to say that it has often been difficult to understand what they are doing there.

You tend to quickly jump to negative comments. The "new arrival hall " that's being worked on is being built with steel i.e Hurricane proof and two big units are being built. Wasn't the current new airport building built of steel?

Aw…….c’mon, Peeps. Let’s try to be positive about this.
If it’s open for departures in November, good on them but if not we’ve waited this long - as long as it’s getting done - that’s what really matters.
I choose to be optimistic they’ve finally gotten it right. And if not, there’s always the next trip. 🙂🙂
Respectfully,
