WASHINGTON (7News) — For the first time in 20 years, Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD) has a new concourse.
Concourse E officially opens on Monday, marking the end of three years of construction on Dulles’ highly anticipated addition.
Serving only United Airlines, the 435,000-square foot concourse has 14 gates and welcomes both domestic and international flights.
The concourse will also have direct access to the AeroTrain, allowing easy transportation to and from connections and back to the main terminal.
It’s part of grand future plans that include the building of several more concourses.
Eventually, the plan is to tear down the current C/D concourse, which was supposed to be temporary but has been in operation for more than 40 years.
