A new $31-million expansion at Mid-American Saint Louis Airport in Mascoutah is now open.
After four years of construction, funded by State and Federal dollars, the airport’s 41,000 square foot terminal expansion is ready for business. Governor JB Pritzker was on hand for the ribbon cutting and said travelers will notice some upgrades.
“An expanded departure lounge with added room for concessions, a nursing room, a faster baggage handling system, modernized TSA screening, a service animal relief area, and ADA compliant renovations to accommodate people with disabilities.”
The Governor says since it opened 25 years ago, Mid-America has become one of the busiest airports for passenger travel in the state.
