The 2.25-mile automated people mover linking LAX's terminals to the Metro Rail system and the rental car centre began demonstration running without passengers, aiming for 30 consecutive days of error-free operation before it can carry anyone. Construction was originally due to finish in March 2023; Los Angeles World Airports has since agreed to more than $880 million in dispute payments on top of the $4.9 billion, 25-year contract, and has not announced an opening date.

An IndiGo flight from Lucknow landed on the first day of scheduled service at the National Capital Region's second airport, whose first phase has one 3,900 m runway and a 101,590 sq m terminal for 12 million passengers a year, designed by Grimshaw with Nordic, Haptic and STUP. Zurich Airport International holds the 40-year concession, and the DGCA granted the aerodrome licence on 6 March 2026.

Harry Reid International, Signature Aviation and U.S. Customs and Border Protection opened a dedicated general aviation and cargo clearance building on the west side of the airfield. It takes international private-jet arrivals out of the passenger terminals, which the airport says cuts congestion as Las Vegas draws more international traffic for its sporting events.

Sky Harbor's West Terminal, the airport's first new terminal since Terminal 4 opened in 1990, is scheduled to go into construction in 2029 and open in 2033, with the number of concourses and gates still to be decided. The airport puts the likely cost at around $4.5 billion, paid for with passenger facility charges, bonds and airport funding rather than tax dollars.
