Oakland International Airport (OAK) has completed its Terminal 1 Check-In Counter Replacement Project as part of its ongoing renovations. The updated check-in lobby, designed by HNTB and built by Turner Construction, features new check-in counters, LED light fixtures, and repainted lobby ceiling and back walls, with 30% of project improvements completed by workers from the Port of Oakland’s Local Business Area (LBA) and 75% of project work performed by local firms. The check-in lobby is part of a larger airport renovation project that includes new restaurants and retail concepts, new furniture and flooring in Terminal 1, and updated restroom facilities.
“The completion of our Terminal 1 check-in counter replacement is the latest step that our OAK team has taken to improve passenger experience at the airport,” said Port of Oakland director of aviation Craig Simon. “This much-needed renovation of our 1962 facility has significantly modernized the look and feel of the pre-security area of the terminal. We hope that passengers enjoy this refresh, along with other recent facility improvements here at OAK.”
