All I can say is WOW what difference. I flew out on 8/14 (opening day). All went smooth. The pictures do not do it justice.

I thought it was great also. Flew out on 8/5 and was disappointed I could not see inside. Returned yesterday from Europe (Can't PDX make it easier? Why a bus ride after clearing customs? I'm familiar with about eight other airports after clearing customs and you should be able to walk back into the main concourse.) and walked back into the terminal to check it out.

On the client/Port side, the design side and the construction side. I can speak from direct experience. Very rewarding to see the overwhelming positive response from the traveling public and from the community in general. Still lots to do before final project completion in January ‘26. |

I hear ya...but the International part of PDX is pretty limited compared to places like SEA , LAX etc. Canada, Mexico and what 1 or 2 per day to Europe? But hey you do get free use of a luggage cart  |

But hey you do get free use of a luggage cart Flew back from Vancouver BC to Portland about a year ago, and from Toronto to PDX last week, and at least from those airports you actually clear US immigration/customs on departure while you are still technically on Canadian soil, so you disembark at PDX the same way you would flying back from Denver or the like. |
