The other Saturday, flying out of Seattle I noticed that one of the noon-time departures was moved to the old Delta A-gates. That's a haul...and now it appears that Delta has gone to the Port of Seattle and asked for some overflow space on Concourse B. The link below is to a pda file from the Port and note page 2.

Basically, the Port is in agreement to make some changes to several 'B' gates to allow for Delta use during overflow periods. I am going to assume that's referring to the old, old Delta gates 1,3,5 that remain basically unused today. All the other 'B' gates are taken.

This is needed as I find the South Satellite stuffed during the midday rush...

Hmm, I wonder if this'll affect any of the QX operations on B1 and B3.

It'll be nice to see DL aircraft back in their old old gates. Any idea if they'll use the retro jetways that're still in place? That'd be a wonderful time warp.

Cheers,
Anthony/Airport

A proposed new 6,500 sf Delta lounge on the roof of the South Satellite sounds pretty nifty as well.

The present Club International space will be the future home of Inflight Services for the cabin crew check-in. I'm looking forward to that as our existing space is grossly inadquete for our day to day operations

Made from jets!

Needing more gate space is always a good thing.

But what does Delta want done to the B gates?

Quoting Deltal1011man (Reply 4):

Document from the Port doesn't say. I'll take a guess that it's infrastructure - T-1 lines for computers. Maybe new jet bridges since 2 or 3 of the old Delta gates are the decades old style that don't move.
