SFO opens the final section of Harvey Milk T1

The final section of Harvey Milk Terminal 1 at San Francisco International Airport (SFO) is now open.

This phase of the Terminal 1 re-do offers travelers a new north check-in lobby for Alaska Airlines and Delta Airlines and a new mezzanine-level security checkpoint.

Travelers will find new museum galleries, additional aircraft gates, a third airport yoga room, new concessions, and the final piece of the connecting walkway that now links all SFO terminals post-security.

What to look for in the new Harvey Milk T1 section

This week Alaska Airlines moves its check-in area, flights and baggage services from Terminal 2 to Terminal 1 and begins using a new automated bag drog technology in the Terminal 1 lobby.

Passengers may now use the new security checkpoint on the T1 mezzanine level. This new checkpoint is accessible from the Terminal 1 Air Train station and will surely become the ‘secret’ way into the airport, now that all terminals are linked post-security.

A common-use lounge, the Club at SFO, opens on June 25. Alaska Airlines will open a new flagship lounge in Terminal 1 in late July. Till then, Alaska Airlines is keeping its T2 lounge open.

The SFO Museum has opened a lovely “Photo Alley” gallery and there are several new concessions, including Green Apple Books.
