During the first quarter of 2025, LAS has prioritized upgrades and improvements to ensure a seamless journey for travelers. 

Modernization of baggage handling systems in Terminal 1 is ongoing, with two carousels completed and an additional two near completion. Work on the remaining 12 carousels will be completed in phases to minimize disruption in operations. This project provides more efficient movement of checked bags and a clean, modern aesthetic. 

Other key projects include the installation of escalators to streamline passenger movement at Terminal 1. Two new escalators will be installed in Baggage Claim, going up to Level 2 and leading to the parking garage pedestrian bridge. Two additional escalators will be constructed from Level 2, going down to the Passenger Pickup area in the parking garage. Installation is slated to begin in May; with anticipated completion in early 2027.

A new gaming and smoking lounge will be constructed in the D gates on Level 2, near Gate D50, offering travelers convenience and a true Vegas experience. Construction on the 890-square-foot space began this month and is slated for completion by the end of the year. 

All of these improvements enhance convenience while elevating the overall airport experience by providing modern amenities and greater accessibility for all travelers.
