Airport Construction Note

PDX has undergone significant construction as part of the PDX Next program. The original Concourse Connector pet relief area closed in January 2021 and was replaced by the current locations at Gates C5 and D5. Travelers should verify current gate assignments and use the security checkpoint corresponding to their departure gate (B/C checkpoint for B/C gates; D/E checkpoint for D/E gates).
