When you start banning journalists for doing journalism, it's the beginning of the end for me. Find me elsewhere. I want to stay in touch:

The promised @Delta One Lounge at @mspairport is moving one step closer to reality. The airport has identified a 20k square foot space above the G Concourse for a location and is about to spend $1 million to evaluate its structural soundness and build out costs. cc @kpottermn
@plattMSP@Delta@mspairport@kpottermn Yeah, I don’t think the big growth plans are at all likely. But I do think some of the older structures will wind up being addressed.
@plattMSP@Delta@mspairport@kpottermn It’s all spelled out in their airport plan. It certainly may not turn out this way, but it at least gives an idea of the issues and when they might need to be addressed: https://t.co/0zZbaDz5OI
@plattMSP@Delta@mspairport@kpottermn Yep. They plan to do the same with the E/D/C concourses as well. I admit though that one of them is due much before the other. I gather from their long term plan that E/F (the old Red/Blue concourses) are approaching end of life.
@plattMSP@Delta@mspairport@kpottermn The plan in the medium term is tear down all of F and then merge it into and align it with G, which I imagine will necessarily mean rebuilding that whole node.
@plattMSP@Delta@mspairport@kpottermn Agreed. It’s the logical, if inconvenient spot, especially considering the long-term plan has them redoing that whole area to replace the F concourse. I imagine that’s part of the $1M price tag too.
@MosheYehuda I mean I’m not there. But on the tape the controller says “JAZZ 646 I see you collided with a vehicle.” And the fire truck he was telling to stop was crossing RWY 4 at Delta, while the Frontier is nowhere near Delta. So maybe, but the ATC recording suggests it’s Jazz/Air Canada.
@stevestgermain Pilots often will say that they plan for a go around on every flights. It’s the landing that should be optional until the last minute. Glad you’re in good and experience hands!
