DFW Airport has released their $1.4-billion 2026 proposed budget for next year during a meeting with the Fort Worth City Council Tuesday.
DFW Chief Financial Officer Chris Poinsatte says they are setting a number of records including the number of passengers and the amount of revenue they are bringing in.
There are some changes coming to airport operations.
"Our fixed contract increases are mostly associated with utilities and with facilities maintenance," Poinsatte said. "We are taking over maintenance from American Airlines in Terminals A and C starting this year."
"The airlines will pay us about $756-million primarily for landing fees and terminal rents," Poinsatte said. "That averages out to about $17 per in-plane passenger."
They are still working to expand Terminal F, more than doubling the existing gates.
