Nashville International Airport (BNA) has opened its first free-standing Satellite Concourse as part of its BNA Vision expansion programme.
The Satellite Concourse encompasses gates C4 – C11 and will primarily accommodate Allegiant Air and Spirit Airlines.
This eight-gate facility will be accessed from the shuttle station at the main terminal, adjacent to Gate C13.
From there, a fleet of electric shuttles run every three minutes, transporting up to 69 passengers per shuttle.
Doug Kreulen, president and CEO of Nashville International Airport said:The opening of our new Satellite Concourse is a milestone for BNA as we continue to work to accommodate the exponential growth we’re experiencing while simultaneously enhancing the passenger experience. As we continue to work towards building a world-class airport for a world-class city, we are excited for our passengers to experience the newest addition to BNA.
The concourse opened on 21 October and features several new retail and concession options, with additional locations set to open in the future.
