All the debate on "new airport", either I missed it or nobody looked it up?
air·port
noun
a complex of runways and buildings for the takeoff, landing, and maintenance of civil aircraft, with facilities for passengers.
Clearly by the definition alone this is not a new airport. The title could mean either so I had to read the thread to figure out if it was really a new airport or not. However while not technically correct most people would know what you mean if you said it. Point being, as in many circumstances, one word to add clarity could have avoided all the dabate. "New SLC airport facilities open September 15th, 2020".
All that aside I have thus far always avoided that airport as a connection if given the choice, so good to know at some point next year I can change my thoughts on that.
