LAX "TBIT West" project.
Posted: Sat Apr 24, 2010 3:30 am
Hey guys, thought all of our LAX lovers might be interested in this, also some pretty good information.
As some of you may have noticed taxiway "Q" has been closed at LAX for about 2 months now. This is due to a "face lift" going on at LAX. Taxiway "Q" will become a whole new ramp of gates to increase capacity and reduce the amount of international arrivals, who arrive in the morning and have to get towed to the west remotes, only to get towed back for their evening departure. It will also increase LAX's A380 capacity, so LAX will be able to service more then 1... 2... maybe even 3 A380s at a time without taking up the entire ramp space and still allowing flights to come in and out of TBIT without a hitch... This 1.26 BILLION dollar expansion/renovation looks really amazing, I hope everyone is as excited to here about it as I am.
