MESA, AZ — From new retail shops and restaurants to becoming a key part of space tourism, Phoenix-Mesa Gateway has been pretty busy with its upgrades for its passengers and business partners! “In May, we set the record for the busiest day in the history of the airport, we anticipate summer travel, just like the rest of the country. We're going to set records; we're excited about future growth that we have here at the airport. On the commercial passenger side, we're constantly talking to air to new airlines, and looking to expand.
And then we have a lot of economic development projects that are happening,” said Ryan Smith, Director of Communications and Government Relations of Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport, to ABC15. Earlier the year, the airport opened a new 30,000 square-foot, five-gate terminal that included new retail space and additional outdoor dining opportunities. “We have invested well over $30 million, just in the last [two years], in the customer experience.
We added five gates, a brand-new South Concourse Terminal here at the airport, [we] like to say it's just plain easy to fly to Gateway Airport,” said Smith. If you're headed to Phoenix-Mesa Gateway airport anytime soon, there are plenty of new restaurants to check out! The airport recently opened Macayo's Mexican Food, Infusion Coffee & Tea Crafters, O.H.
S.O. Brewery, and Panera Bread.
