Will Rogers World Airport hit by the tornado. The company decided in August 2013 not to re-open the facility and exit the OKC market. The airport once partnered with Tinker AFB in presenting Aerospace America airshow. By the late 1990s the Oklahoma City Airport Trust deemed the 1967-built terminal building unsuitable. Following the adoption of a three phase master plan, preparations for renovating the airport were launched in 2001. The old twin concourses (visible in the 1995 photograph) were demolished to make way for a larger terminal with integrated concourses, high ceilings, and modern facilities. A $110 million multi-phase expansion and renovation project, designed
Will Rogers World Airport new transportation plaza and driving lanes. Phase-II included a new concourse constructed to the west of the central terminal area, which was renovated to match the interior and exterior designs of the new concourse. The 1960s-built concourses were then demolished after the new concourse opened in 2005. The entire phase was completed in November 2006. Phase-III project calls for the construction of a new concourse to the east, with at least eight more gates as well as expanded retail, restaurant, and baggage areas. Will Rogers World Airport has a single three-level terminal with 17 departure gates along the West Concourse
