Night at the Museum: Art and Science Come to Life at PHX Sky Harbor

<div class="ExternalClass400437AB4BBB46DF9F6774EF6729EF8D"><html> The Phoenix Airport Museum hosts its first ever Night at the Museum event at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport on Friday, March 24, from 4-7 pm at the Terminal 4, level 3 gallery. The event celebrates the Museum's current Artist and Researcher exhibition presenting art inspired by science. The exhibition was developed by the Phoenix Bioscience Core where nine local artists were paired with researchers to create artwork based on their different areas of study. Working side-by-side in the lab, classroom and art studio, the resulting works are visual representations of the scientific progress happening in our city and state. Come by to see what happens when the talents of both science and art join forces to communicate complex information in an approachable way through artworks. Meet the researchers and artists involved in the program and learn about their collaboration. View artworks influenced by scientific investigation that explore concepts of communication, memory, emotion and circulation. Participate in an augmented reality experience that allows viewers to walk through sections of the brain. Museum staff will be on hand with a fun art activity, treats and scavenger hunt guides to explore more art at the Airport.

Phoenix Sky Harbor Sets Record for Busiest Day Ever

<div class="ExternalClassE9F071DDD8AD4D4D9C4AAE7B1C5FBEF1"><html> PHOENIX – Monday, February 13, marked a milestone day for America's Friendliest Airport® as more than 200,000 visitors came through the Airport. This is the single busiest day in Phoenix Sky Harbor International's history. The Airport, which served more than 44 million passengers in 2022, has an average of 120,000 passengers come through its doors on an average day. “Super Bowl LVII set records across the City of Phoenix, and that could not be more evident than at our airport," said Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego. “These numbers speak to the appeal of Phoenix and Arizona as a destination for high caliber events. Our airport is our front door, and I couldn't be more proud of the work that went in to preparing for these record-breaking numbers." This was the fourth time Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport welcomed visitors to the area for the Big Game. Planning began more than a year ago as the Airport worked closely with the airlines, Transportation Security Administration (TSA), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), law enforcement, concessionaires, and the Super Bowl Host Committee to prepare. Combined with the Super Bowl, the Valley of the Sun also welcomed visitors coming in for the W.M. Phoenix Open golf tournament. This resulted in the significant influx of passengers coming through Airport facilities. Overall, Phoenix Sky Harbor saw the following on Monday, February 13: <ul> <li>1,691 takeoffs and landings – compared to 1,200 on an average day</li> <li>No wait time at the TSA security checkpoints was more than 22 minutes</li> <li>90,244 passengers screened including charter and private aircraft operations. Of this, TSA screened 83,914 passengers through their checkpoints, making PHX the busiest airport in the nation.</li> <li>47,206 total checked bags including terminal and charter operations</li> <li>2,132 bags checked using the Early Bag Check service</li> <li>More than 9,100 rental car returns and more than 5,600 rental car pick-ups</li> <li>Nearly 50,000 people rode the PHX Sky Train®</li> <li>1,367 total taxi operations (pickups and drop offs)</li> <li>23,657 total rideshare operations (pickups and drop offs)</li> <li>313 business/corporate flight operations (arrivals and departures)</li> <li>12 charter operations </li></ul><div style="text-align:right;"><img class="" style="margin:5px;width:240px;height:600px;vertical-align:baseline;" src="/aviationsite/MediaAssets/Busiest%20Day%20Infographic.jpg" />Many airport partners brought in additional staff just for the event. The TSA also brought in extra K-9 teams to assist with security screening. And, there were extra volunteers on hand as well. More than 80 volunteer Navigators and Navigator Buddy therapy dog teams were in the terminals. There were also 45 volunteers from the Super Bowl Host Committee.</div> Phoenix's general aviation airports were also busy. At Phoenix Deer Valley Airport, they had 135 aircraft come in for the Big Game. On Monday, there were 91 operations. At Phoenix Goodyear Airport, they had 130 aircraft come in for the Super Bowl, and total operations for Monday was 137. “We received a tremendous amount of positive feedback from travelers about their experience," said Director of Aviation Services Chad Makovsky. “As America's Friendliest Airport®, we take great pride in ensuring our passengers have a warm, welcoming, and positive experience. We're constantly working to enhance our facilities to meet the evolving needs of our customers when traveling through our Airport. While our entire Airport community is experienced at welcoming visitors for major events, they exceeded my expectations as they worked tirelessly over the last year to ensure fans and visitors alike had a positive and memorable experience." Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, America's Friendliest Airport ®, has an annual economic impact of more than $38 billion. On an average day, approximately 1,200 aircraft and more than 120,000 passengers arrive at and depart from Phoenix Sky Harbor every day. PHX Sky Harbor is funded with Airport revenue. No tax dollars are used to support the Airport. </html></div>

PHX Sky Harbor Looks Forward to Welcoming Super Bowl LVII Visitors to AZ; Offers Important Travel Tips

<div class="ExternalClass90F0C3C065FC4DF99F2741DA389600CE"><html> America's Friendliest Airport® is looking forward to welcoming travelers to Arizona for Super Bowl LVII. Various events across the Valley of the Sun including the WM Phoenix Open and the Super Bowl will mean the Airport will be very busy. February 13, the day after Super Bowl LVII, is anticipated to be one of Phoenix Sky Harbor's busiest days on record with a projected 50 percent increase in traffic. “Our staff has been working with airlines, the TSA, the Arizona Super Bowl Host Committee, law enforcement, our restaurant operators and other partners to ensure we are ready to welcome visitors coming in for the Big Game," said Director of Aviation Services Chad Makovsky. “Phoenix Sky Harbor is no stranger to welcoming visitors to big events and to town for the Super Bowl. With our focus on service as well as recent enhancements we've made to our facilities, we look forward to providing our visitors with an exceptional experience." Here are some tips to make your travel experience smoother: If you are planning to rent a car, make sure to reserve your car in advance. Phoenix Sky Harbor is anticipating an increase in car rentals around the Super Bowl and vehicles may be limited for walk-up customers. If you are not renting a car, use Valley Metro Rail to travel between the Airport and downtown Phoenix. The free PHX Sky Train® offers an easy connection between all airport terminals and Valley Metro Rail. After disembarking from the PHX Sky Train®, make sure to purchase your pass from the Valley Metro fare vending machine. Then, take Valley Metro Rail westbound and get off at the 3rd Street/Washington Station for the Phoenix Convention Center, Footprint Center and Chase Field. For Hance Park, use the Roosevelt/Central Ave. or McDowell/Central Ave. stations. It's a quick and easy ride to all Super Bowl LVII activities in downtown Phoenix. For more information on Valley Metro Rail, visit https://www.valleymetro.org/SBgameplan If you have questions while in the Airport, ask one of our friendly volunteer Navigators in the purple jackets. They will be stationed with Super Bowl volunteers who can answer questions about Super Bowl events. Travel Tips for departing passengers, especially on February 13 (the day after the Super Bowl): Remember 5-4-3-2-1. 5 hours before departure - Check out of your hotel; 4 hours before departure – Turn in your rental car; 3 hours before departure – Check in at the Ticket Counter; 2 hours before departure – Get in line at the TSA Security Checkpoint; and 1 hour before departure – Be at your gate. If you have a Super Bowl program, please place it in your carry-on bag. For questions about carry-on and checked items, visit <a style="background-color:window;" href="http://tsa.gov/" target="_blank">TSA.gov</a> And, remember, if you are traveling with needed medications, be sure and place them in your carry-on bag. Save time and skip the airline ticket counter - use Early Bag Check. Check your bags before boarding the PHX Sky Train® at the 44th Street Station or at the Rental Car Center Station. Bags must be checked a minimum of 90 minutes before your flight. This service is available for those flying American, Delta, Southwest, or United. No additional charge though individual airline bag fees apply. This service will be available on Sunday, February 12 and Monday, February 13 only. Learn more at <a href="http://skyharbor.com/superbowl" target="_blank">skyharbor.com/superbowl</a> Visit <a style="background-color:window;" href="http://skyharbor.com/" target="_blank">skyharbor.com</a> to check flight status and see what shops and restaurants are near your gate. Many shops both before and after security will be selling an assortment of merchandise for the Big Game. You can also view security wait times on skyharbor.com and on the flight information screens in the terminals. Looking to save your place and reduce your wait in the TSA Security Checkpoint line? Use the PHX RESERVE program. Schedule your time prior to arriving at the airport <a style="background-color:window;" href="https://www.skyharbor.com/PHXReserve" target="_blank">on our website</a> . You can schedule your time up to six days in advance. If you or someone you will be traveling with has a hidden disability such as dementia or autism, you can reserve a Compassion Cacti™ Lanyard in advance, which signals to employees that you may need extra time, assistance, or patience in the travel process. You can even schedule a Navigator Support Guide to accompany you through the airport. <a style="background-color:window;" href="https://www.skyharbor.com/ShopsFoodServices/services/compassion-corner" target="_blank">Learn more</a> .

PHX Debuts Final Stage of the PHX Sky Train®: Customers can now easily connect between the Terminals and Rental Car Center

<div class="ExternalClass1A1F8A2062C6441F9914C7093E044452"><html> Just in time for the busy holiday travel season and next year’s Super Bowl, Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego, members of the Phoenix City Council, and local leaders celebrated the opening of the final stage of the PHX Sky Train®. The 2.5 mile extension connects the terminals with the Rental Car Center and adds two new stations – the Rental Car Center Station and the 24th Street Station. Stage 2 opens to the public on December 20. “The new PHX Sky Train® extension is a perfect example of why I believe Phoenix is the city of the future,” said Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego. “Phoenix is a hub for innovation, and we are constantly using data-driven technology to make life easier for our residents, as well as our visitors. When fans arrive for the big game in February, they will instantly see why Phoenix is a top-tier destination for business,for jobs, for vacationers, and for those who’d like to build a life here.” The extension of the PHX Sky Train® to the Rental Car Center has been long-awaited for many travelers. It provides a more efficient and convenient travel experience between the terminals and the Rental Car Center. In fact, it will take under 8 minutes to go from Terminal 4 to the Rental Car Center, and about 13 minutes to ride the entire five miles from the 44th Street Station to the new Rental Car Center Station. Trains arrive and depart every three to five minutes 24 hours a day. In addition to the new Rental Car Center Station, a new station was added at 24th Street and Buckeye Road – the 24th Street Station. This provides a convenient option for travelers arriving from the West Valley and downtown Phoenix. Roadway improvements mean that drivers will find improved access to and from nearby freeways. The Station features public and commercial pick-up and drop-off at the curb and will allow travelers to get to the terminals in a matter of minutes. Additionally, the new 24th Street Express Pay Parking, with 1,600 economy parking spaces will open just to the south of the station, also providing easy access to the terminals and another option for those travelers entering the airport from the West. The parking area will also feature a number of electric vehicle charging stations. Both stations feature beautiful artist designed terrazzo floors. The design of the Rental Car Center PHX Sky Train® Station terrazzo floor, From the Earth to the Sky by local artist Bill Dambrova, is inspired by the human curiosity of Earth and what is beyond. Many terrazzo materials and aggregates are from shells, fossils, etc. At the 24th Street Station, local artist Frank Gonzales created a design called Sonoran Essence. The design spans more than 8,000 square feet and magnifies small details within the native Sonoran desert, including native plants. The Rental Car Center Station also features a piece called Sky Curtain which was inspired by the changing colors of the Phoenix sky. The artist team of R&R Studios designed two sculptural weather screens which include layers of colorful pipes that reveal different colors as passengers walk along the platform. Additional benefits of the project include improved accessibility, especially for customers using wheelchairs. The project also helps to reduce traffic on Sky Harbor Boulevard, easing transit to and from the terminals. Other project improvements include enhancements at the PHX Sky Train®’s maintenance and support facility. The size of the facility was doubled, and the project saw an additional 30,000 square feet for storage, an automated vehicle wash and storage tracks. Additionally, 24 cars were added to the existing 18 vehicles. With the opening of this final stage, the trains will run in a threecar format compared to the two-car format they have previously been running. Each train car accommodates up to 53 passengers. It’s estimated that future ridership could reach 79,000 people daily which would include both Rental Car Center customers as well as those who park at the 24th Street Station or who are picked up or dropped off there. With Phoenix Sky Harbor being so focused on being future-friendly, this project in particular has a number of sustainability features, including diverting 76% of on-site construction waste from landfills; using 23% of building materials manufactured from recycled materials; using highefficiency air handlers and chillers to help reduce energy consumption in the station by 30%, and using efficient plumbing fixtures to achieve a 43% reduction from the airport’s baseline water usage. In fact, Stage 2 of the project received the Envision Gold Award.This award was presented by the Institute for Sustainable Infrastructure and evaluated the project’s performance across 60 sustainability criteria addressing a wide range of indicators including: community, quality of life, management, planning, materials, energy, water, environmental impacts, emissions, and resilience. The $745 million project was paid for with Rental Car Customer Facility Charges and airline Passenger Facility Charges. No tax dollars were used.

Phoenix Sky Harbor Becomes First Airport in the World to Offer Waymo Rider-Only Autonomous Vehicle Service

<div class="ExternalClass2D32B6D01F354649BF80A50FB1BB5DBC"><html> Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, America's Friendliest Airport®, has set another milestone today with Waymo launching fully autonomous vehicle service to the general public at Phoenix Sky Harbor. Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego arrived today at the 44th Street and Washington PHX Sky Train® Station via a Waymo vehicle to launch the new service. This set a global milestone as Phoenix Sky Harbor became the first airport in the world to offer travelers the ability to take a Waymo autonomous vehicle as a means of transportation to and from the airport. “Phoenix is leading the future of mobility and modernizing how the world will experience travel," said Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego. “The exciting technology offers our customers an additional option for traveling to the airport in a clean, sustainable, and technologically advanced mode of transportation. The future has arrived in Phoenix!" Waymo also announced today it is more than doubling the Waymo One service area in Downtown Phoenix. The expansion connects the airport service to a large swath of the downtown area, offering safe and convenient mobility options to Phoenicians and travelers alike. In early November, Waymo began offering its Trusted Tester participants the opportunity to take autonomous rides to and from downtown Phoenix and the Airport with an autonomous specialist in the vehicle. Now, Waymo has removed the autonomous specialist from the vehicle and anyone can hail a Waymo to ride between the airport and downtown Phoenix. Rides are available 24 hours, seven days a week in Waymo's fully electric Jaguar I-PACE equipped with the fifth generation Waymo Driver. Pickups and drop-offs occur at the 44 th Street PHX Sky Train® Station where travelers can hop on the free PHX Sky Train® direct to the terminals. Trains arrive and depart every few minutes. This new service comes two years after Waymo opened its fully autonomous commercial ride-hailing service, Waymo One, to the public in the East Valley of Phoenix; and builds on the company's strong partnership with the City of Phoenix. </html></div>
