Dulles Opens New Concourse With 14 United Gates

Washington Dulles International Airport opened Concourse E on Nov. 10, its first new concourse in nearly 20 years. The 435,000-square-foot facility adds 14 United gates, direct AeroTrain access, expanded seating, dining and retail options, and a roughly 40,000-square-foot United Club with seating for more than 600. The opening is the first phase of a multibillion-dollar modernization that could add up to 36 more United gates and includes planned upgrades to the main terminal, AeroTrain and international-arrivals facilities. United says the added capacity will support more than 300 daily departures from Dulles next summer as it expands its hub and adds international routes.
