Ooh - new airport terminal!

Hollywood Burbank Airport (BUR) opens a new/replacement terminal. It's pretty darn swanky.

Here's my story about what's inside and out on The Points Guy site:

13 Gateside by TSAPrecheck airports were announced in September. Now the list is growing.

@PITairport - the first airport to offer a visitor pass program (MyPITpass) back in 2017 - is back in the fold. But for Gateside you'll need TSA Precheck to visit the airport.

[Pittsburgh International Airport @PITairport]

Gateside by @tsa PreCheck® has arrived at PIT! Eligible TSA PreCheck® members can apply for access beyond security without a flight ticket to meet arriving passengers, accompany loved ones to the gate or enjoy terminal amenities.

Momentum grows for renaming Nashville Int'l Airport (BNA) for Dolly Parton.
