April 6, 2025
A terminal expansion and modernization program is forthcoming at the Pensacola International Airport (PNS).
With 104% growth in passenger traffic over the past decade, Pensacola International Airport is embarking on a multi-phase expansion to accommodate increasing demand, enhance the passenger experience, and position the airport for future success. The Terminal Expansion and Modernization Program will include additional gate capacity, upgraded amenities, advanced security features, and an improved overall airport infrastructure.
The airport has announced the launch of TransformPNS.com, a dedicated and dynamic website providing the latest updates, project details, and community engagement opportunities for the Airport’s Terminal Expansion and Modernization Program.
The website offers visitors an interactive and user-friendly experience, featuring:
- Project Overview – A detailed look at the Terminal Expansion and Modernization Program’s goals, phases, and expected benefits.
- Latest News & Updates – Timely announcements on construction milestones, new features, and project progress.
- Community Engagement – Information on public meetings, feedback opportunities, and ways for the community to be involved in the expansion process.
- Visuals & Renderings – Concept images, blueprints, and video updates showcasing the future of PNS.
Additional real-time updates will be posted as the project progresses.
“Pensacola International Airport continues to grow as a key gateway to the Gulf Coast, and this expansion is critical to ensuring we provide the best possible experience for our travelers,” said Executive Airport Director Matt Coughlin. “TransformPNS.com allows us to keep our passengers and stakeholders engaged, informed, and excited about the future of PNS.”
PNS connects over three million passengers per year and offers over 20 nonstop flights to major cities across the United States. The airport currently has 12 gates and will be expanded to 17 gates.

This is a waste of tax money. Start by moving the airport to a place where you can actually grow it… Politicians always the dumbest
@Dhg
You are so right
dallas moved their airport way out in 1969-70
Denver is WAY out of their old airport.
Escambia and Mobile needs to work together for a shared airport. PensCola could be kept for cargo and small planes
I am hoping for decorative lights like those used at the new terminal in Kansas City lit up for the Kansas City Chiefs or for Holidays, very cheerful and welcoming.
I’m sure the airport has a lot of needs but knowing how land locked it is with neighborhoods and commercial property the day could come when the city needs to look for a site that allows expansion. The city could go through the same situation Orlando went through where the original airport is now for smaller executive planes and the main airport is outside the main area of the city. That is how far ahead the city needs to be looking.
It’s about time but to be frank those 5 gates won’t be enough. You should have just made it an even 20 gates. I get the money issue but that airport makes hands over fist money for the City. SThats just my 2 cents either way don’t take 20 years to do this like everything else in this county does. # Cough Cough FDOT, OLF Property and the Bay Center!!
The airport needs more parking garages inside the Airport Blvd Loop which is close to the terminal, currently there is only the one, increasing the number of parking spaces by a few thousand.
