ORLANDO, Fla. — Editor’s note: This story is available as a result of a content partnership between WFTV and the Orlando Business Journal.
Orlando International Airport CEO Kevin Thibault has his sights set on the next stage of the air hub’s expansion — something that starts with the September debut of the new Terminal C and beyond.
Terminal C, a $2.8 billion-plus expansion, will open in September with myriad upgrades, including a low-touch environment with concessions, interactive media displays and architecture. It will help the airport provide a newer experience for travelers, designed to showcase the region and what it has to offer.
Thibault often visits the new Terminal C project that will bring online 15 new airline gates and raise the passenger capacity at the airport to 60 million — currently the airport welcomes 47 million travelers.
