Delta Air Lines to Relocate to Terminals 2, 3 at LAX in May
Read MoreHide Full Article
Delta Air Lines(DAL - Free Report) based in Atlanta, GA, has recently announced its decision to relocate from Terminals 5 and 6 to Terminals 2 and 3, respectively, at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) in May. In Aug 2016, this airline behemoth’s lease and license agreement had already received an approval to relocate from Los Angeles City Council. The relocation is scheduled to start on May 12 and is expected to be completed by May 17.
In fact, the move is a precursor for the Delta Sky Way at LAX, which is Delta’s $1.9 billion plan to modernize, upgrade and connect Terminals 2, 3 to the Tom Bradley International Terminal (TBIT), over the next seven years.
The plan is expected to offer huge benefits to Delta customers. They will not only enjoy faster and more convenient connections to flights, but also reduced ramp congestion on arriving and departing from LAX. Moreover, this new location being closer to the LAXs’ entrance eases the movement in and out of the airport. Terminals 2 and 3 will offer concessions and popular spots like Shake Shack and Angel City Brewery to passengers. Additionally, the renovated LAX is likely to provide customers with a private Delta One check-in lounge, new state-of-the-art Delta Sky Clubs and an integrated in-line baggage system.
After completion, the facility should offer better passenger flows, additional gate-area seating and a concession program featuring local chefs and restaurants in partnership with Westfield Corporation. Notably, following the move Delta will have 23 gates at LAX and will also operate with some of its airline partners Aeromexico, Virgin Atlantic and WestJet.
Further, Delta Air Lines is also ensuring awareness of the move by holding customer and partner town halls, out-of-home advertising in and around the airport and meeting all airport stakeholders, including impacted airlines frequently.
Delta Air Lines currently has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Some better ranked stocks in the airline space are Gol Linhas Aereas Inteligentes , International Consolidated Airlines Group (ICAGY - Free Report) and LATAM Airlines Group . While Gol Linhas and International Consolidated Airlines Group sport a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), LATAM Airlines Group carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

Shares of Gol Linhas, International Consolidated Airlines Group and LATAM Airlines Group returned over 89%, 26% and 50%, respectively. on a year-to-date basis.
