Delta's Expanded International Terminal in Seattle Is Officially on the Way
A few years ago, Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) made Seattle its primary international gateway on the West Coast. Today, Delta flies nonstop from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport to the top five business centers in East Asia -- Beijing, Hong Kong, Seoul, Shanghai, and Tokyo -- as well as three of the biggest European hubs (Amsterdam, London, and Paris).
However, Delta has had to put the brakes on its international growth in Seattle since 2014. The airport's international arrivals facility, originally designed to process 1,200 passengers per hour, now has to cope with up to 2,000 passengers per hour. As a result, there are significant delays at the customs facility during peak hours.
The Port of Seattle has been working for several years on a plan to alleviate this overcrowding. Last week, it finally broke ground on a major expansion of the international arrivals facility, which will more than double its capacity.
