Now BUR is building that snazzy new transportation center structure and that would leave all that open space next to the terminal to expand a few more gates…
<BUR expansion probably already discussed and I missed it>
More gates for what? Several airlines have packed up and left BUR in the last few years. If they are going to rebuild, it would be a new terminal to the north of the runway. The current terminal has been grandfathered in by the FAA, even though it is too close to the runways. Can't imagine the FAA would let them add on to the old terminal.
