LAX is beginning preparations for a large terminal move on the night of May 12th.

From May 12th-17th, Delta Air Lines will be moving its operations at LAX to Terminals 2 and 3 from Terminals 5 and 6.

As a result, 19 other carriers will also relocate.

Aeromexico, Virgin Atlantic and WestJet, which are partnered with Delta, will remain in Terminals 2 and 3.

The move is designed to give Delta room to grow, adding seven extra gates and giving the carrier easier access to the airport’s international terminal and to Delta’s partners.

The following airlines will relocate: Aer Lingus, Air Canada, Avianca, Copa, Hainan Airlines, Hawaiian Air, Interjet, Qatar Airways, Sun Country, Thomas Cook, Volaris, XL Airways France, Allegiant Air, Boutique Air, Frontier, JetBlue, Southwest, Spirit, Virgin America and Virgin Australia.

Air Canada, Virgin America, XL Airways France and Boutique Air will move to Terminal 6 while Hawaiian, JetBlue, Spirit, Allegiant, Frontier and Sun Country will relocate to Terminal 5.

The other carriers will fly out of the Bradley International Terminal.

A map showing the changes can be found here.

To minimise disruptions, travellers and transportation companies are being alerted, staff will be deployed to help direct passengers and extensive planning for the massive logistical operation is underway.
