United Airlines Opens New 14-Gate Concourse at Dulles Airport

United Airlines Holdings Inc. is opening Concourse E, a new 14-gate facility at Washington Dulles International Airport. The 435,000-square-foot concourse is scheduled to open to travelers on Tuesday and represents the first new addition to the airport in nearly two decades.

This expansion is part of a broader overhaul of the airport managed by the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority, with total costs exceeding $20 billion. The new infrastructure enables the airline to scale its daily flight operations at the hub from the current volume of more than 250 flights to more than 300 by next summer.
