Opened in 1962, Washington Dulles International Airport was constructed to provide additional commercial air transportation capacity to the Washington, DC region, and was planned by Civil Engineering firm Ammann and Whitney. The most notable structure in the airport complex is the Main Terminal, a Modern structure designed by Eero Saarinen, which features a catenary curve concrete roof suspended from columns on either side that lean outwards to counterbalance the structural forces of the roof, with the landside columns of the terminal being higher than the airside columns. At the center of the terminal is a distinctive control tower with a concavely curved concrete base, with multiple tiers of control rooms above featuring windows that taper towards the bottom and a large antenna atop the roof. The main terminal was extended to either side in 1996, matching the original design and doubling the size of the main hall of the terminal. The airport is notable for its use of approximately 50 mobile lounges, large multi-passenger vehicles, which shuttle airline passengers and crew between the main terminal and airplanes parked on the tarmac, which are each named for a different US state. The airport also features multiple midfield concourses, which were built starting in the 1980s, and vary in size and design from the older, lower concourses which feature gates that require passengers to walk on the tarmac, and newer, taller concourses that feature jetways and soaring ceilings, which are connected to the main terminal via an underground train system. The airport today serves as the primary hub for international flights in the Washington, DC region, with more limited domestic service compared to the nearby Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.

Ranweli Spice Garden, Matale, Sri Lanka.
Day Four ... we went from Habarana to Kandy, stopping here at the Ranweli Spice Garden near Matale. We had a tour of the garden, followed by a cookery demonstration. And then we had the most amazing Sri Lankan feast for lunch.
The first of two terminals and concourses are for Southwest Airlines, which accounts for 162 of the 278 flights from BWI, or, about 60%.
San Diego Int’l Airport’s new terminal 1 is partially framed up in October 2023. The airport office building in the foreground was previously the Commuter Terminal and before that a US Air hangar and originally the PSA headquarters and hangar. It should be torn down within a few weeks to make room for the new Terminal 1.

In September 2024, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and JFK Millennium Partners, (JMP) the company that manages John F. Kennedy International Airport’s Terminal 7 and is currently building the airport’s new state-of-the art $4.2 billion Terminal 6, announced that renowned Brooklyn artist Ron Bass’ first-ever art airport installation will elevate the travel experience for Terminal 7 passengers by contributing to a uniquely New York sense of place.
Ron Bass is celebrated for his eclectic and dynamic style that seamlessly blends elements of pop culture, street art and fashion. A native New Yorker, Bass is deeply influenced by the city’s rich artistic heritage and diverse cultural landscape. Over the years, Bass has made significant contributions to the art scene in New York City.
The four wall murals represent the first major art exhibition at the terminal, which is home to 13 domestic and international airlines operating some 2,000 flights per day. The four installations are located in the departures and arrivals areas, marking a significant cultural addition to Terminal 7. Bass’ art exhibit at Terminal 7 will be on view for a limited period until 2026.
Passengers are invited to interact with the murals and to take a moment to connect with the artistic pulse of New York City before embarking on their journeys at these locations in Terminal 7:
-“Dear NY” – arrivals
-“Unified” – by gates 7/8
-“I (really) LOVE NY” – by the Currency Exchange near gates 5/6
-“Destination: New Heights” – gate 9
