McCarran International Airport (LAS) said this week it will begin a $13 million renovation of Concourse C, the base of operations for Southwest Airlines in Las Vegas.
The project, set to begin September 30 with a planned completion of late summer 2021, includes additional and more convenient charging stations, replacing carpet with new, easier to maintain terrazzo flooring, and maximizing the hold rooms by swapping out the current gate podiums with smaller, space-efficient models.
“With the recent decrease in passenger traffic, we were presented with a unique opportunity to complete a major project with minimal impact on travelers,” said Rosemary Vassiliadis, Clark County director of aviation. “The enduring allure of Las Vegas leaves no doubt that we will soon be welcoming more visitors back. When they return, we look forward to greeting them with a more spacious and easily navigated C Concourse.”
Throughout the duration of the work, the majority of Southwest flights will temporarily operate out of the B Concourse.
