This will be a horrible move for passengers and crew members alike. There is no current method to move between terminals other than a shuttle that takes you on main roads around the airport property. Off site parking shuttles drop passengers off at the main terminal only for them to have to wait for another shuttle to drive them around the airport to the 'South Terminal.' Food options, you ask? A food truck. . . If this indeed true, we have given up on the Austin market. Business travelers, Mosaic customers, will give take one look at this and run away. Hoping that someone will come to their senses and protect a very growing market.
Whether true or not, there are plenty of signs of how badly this place is going down the tank in the name of cost savings. Keep those logbooks up to date.
