Terminal change at your home airport?
Hi All,
Is US Airways will be moving to American Airlines gates?
They will be relocated from JFK terminal 7 to Terminal 8.
Check your flight status, terminal change, ticket counter & the gate as well.
Please share the list for me.
Where they will be at?

Eventually the gates will be consolidated but it won't be all US moving. Some will be AA moving and still others may be both moving. Just depends on which has the most room now - DFW AA does but CLT US does - as well as room for the other. It'll be a time consuming process since some places will require moving another airline to make room for either US or AA next to the gates of the other.

First, US is going to moving from T1 to T3.
Second, there used to be a shuttle to T3 from T4 before AS moved to T6. So it worked then.
Third, US's operations at PHL require the use of a shuttle bus as well from Terminal F to C and A.

(Incidentally, US also uses buses between the concourses at DCA.)

This all be moot with today's surprise law suit by the DOJ to block the merger...
AA's OneWorld partner BA occupies T7 at JFK where passengers regularly make connections to AA flights in T8, so there's nothing to suggest US has to consolidate into T8, although there are very few US flights at JFK now so it might not be too difficult to just absorb them and stop paying rent on the space in T7 that US uses.

In CLT the 2 gates AA has will probably just return to airport control, or maybe UA would move down there so they would relinquish A2 and A4 to pick up A9 and A11 to be next to PMCO A10 and A12.
US/AA would be stupid to keep the 2 AA gates since they are farthest from US.
