The program is comprised of 15 projects designed by five different design firms. The MIA North Terminal is one of the largest expansions of an existing airport the U.S. has ever seen – the equivalent of building an entirely new mid-sized airport within a fully operating facility. The design includes 50 new gates, new U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services facilities, 123 ticket counters, 119 self-service kiosks, 72 federal inspection services locations, a state-of-the-art baggage system capable of handling 45,000 bags per day, nearly 2 miles of escalators and moving walkways, an automated people mover, and a wide array of concessions and customer service areas.
