SFO International Terminal Building (ITB) Phase 1 and 2

Phase 1 - Construction Complete

The International Terminal Building (ITB) Phase 1 project renovated areas of the ITB Departures Level to meet current and forecasted international passenger growth, improve passenger experience, and increase revenue generating opportunities. The project renovated the ITB to improve public areas to meet the same level of passenger experience achieved in other recent airport terminal projects at the San Francisco International Airport (SFO). The Departures Level work included increased passenger processing through the expansion of Boarding Areas A and G TSA security checkpoints, leveraging the latest security technology while providing generous re-composure areas. The project expanded duty free retail square footage to increase revenue and renovate restrooms to meet SFO’s REACH standards.

Phase 2 - Under Construction

This project includes renovation in areas of the ITB departures and arrivals levels to meet current and forecasted international passenger growth and increase revenue-generating opportunities by enhancing the guest experience and optimizing airport operations. The renovation of the arrivals includes converting Baggage Claim Units 3, 9, and 12 from domestic to international arrivals, adding Automated Passport Control approved technology to accommodate new international flights, providing phased consolidated secondary screening (formerly immigration), and converting existing BAA and BAG immigration into office space and other CBP and Airport required functions.

The project site is within CBP’s Federal Inspection Service (FIS) area, which is operational 24 hours a day throughout the year. CBP’s passenger processing shall always remain operational during the implementation of the Project. Work will be implemented in phases and all the requirements for interim life safety and guest interface guidelines during construction will be applied.
