    The Mobile Airport Authority has launched a new website, BuildBFM.com, to keep everyone updated on the progress of the new Mobile International Airport.

    This site is a must-visit for businesses, residents, and anyone curious about the project.

    Big Changes Ahead

    Slated to open in 2025, the new five-gate terminal and 1,250-space parking garage will shift all commercial air traffic from Mobile Regional Airport to the new location near downtown.

    Chris Curry, president of the Mobile Airport Authority, expressed his excitement: “BuildBFM.com reflects our commitment to transparency and community involvement. We look forward to the day when all commercial flights in the city take off from Mobile International Airport.”


    What Can You Find on BuildBFM.com?

    For contractors, the site offers detailed bidding information on upcoming construction projects.

    Residents can explore photo and video galleries showing the project's progress.

    The site also answers common questions like:

    • Will there be surface parking? Yes.
    • Will Mobile Regional Airport stay open? Yes, for Airbus Space and Defense and the U.S. Coast Guard Training Facility.
    • Will there be an Amtrak station? The Mobile Airport Authority is considering it and has proposed a location in the master plan.

    Hurry Up and Build Already!

    While the new website is great, there's a shared impatience among locals. We've been waiting for this for what feels like forever.

    The idea of a modern airport near downtown is exciting, but the 2025 opening date seems a long way off.

    In the meantime, BuildBFM.com will be our go-to for the latest updates.

    Let's hope the project stays on track and we see this new airport become a reality soon.

    We're all ready for smoother travels from the new Mobile International Airport!
