Frequently asked questions

Columbus has been an epicenter for air travel since the beginning. Our current terminal opened in 1958, making it more than six decades old.  While there have been updates over the years, multiple assets and systems are nearing the end of their useful lives.

Our award-winning global architecture, design, and planning firm Gensler and local partner Moody Nolan are committed to building the most passenger-friendly facility possible. This airport will be the terminal of the future - maintaining the core of what our community loves about CMH while incorporating much-needed upgrades to keep up with the growth of Central Ohio and the millions of annual passengers we serve.

Today, three separate concourses and security checkpoints mean that passengers only have access to the amenities within their concourse. This is also limiting for businesses and vendors. By centralizing these concourses into one, streamlined checkpoint, we’ll create a more efficient security experience while being able to offer passengers holistic access to all amenities—regardless of their assigned gate.
