Q. Does this mean we won’t build the rest of the Terminal B project?
A. We have commenced the first phase, so it’s too late to stop. However, this decision puts the need for the remaining $600 million investment in significant doubt. Future demand will ultimately determine whether we can justify proceeding with the remainder of the project.
What a load of crap! They operated terminal B with XJET since 2003ish and have grown so big they built a turboprop extension in A and use the remaining A gates for Q400's, and built a monstrosity of a extended gate system at B84A-Q. They are hoping by cutting of their nose to spite their face that the city of IAH with throw them some dollars to finish to new terminal.
