American Airlines adds new check-in, baggage kiosks in Miami
October 15, 2007
MIAMI — American Airlines has announced that it continues to see unprecedented growth at Miami International Airport. To accommodate the growing traffic at the Miami hub, American has been working with the Miami-Dade Aviation Department to expedite the construction of the North Terminal Project. The recent opening of the South Terminal will allow the closing of Concourse A and for American to operate in Concourses C, D and E.
When the North Terminal project is complete, American will operate from a new, state-of-the-art terminal with 50 international gates, an automated people-mover system, 49 ticket counter positions, 90 self-service check-in devices, 20 staffed self-service baggage check-in positions, a new baggage handling system, and a new Customs facility.
American recently added curbside check-in for international passengers at Miami, the only carrier to offer this service. It has also added 23 new self- service check-in stations and a new security checkpoint at Concourse E to accelerate the flow of traffic within the airport.
