Current Airport Passenger Terminal
The current airport has one terminal with a total of eleven (11) boarding gates on two connected concourses: the East Concourse houses Gates 1 through 6 and the West Concourse houses Gates 7 through 12. Gates 1, 7 and 11 are not being used by any airline at the present time. Gate 9 has not been utilized for several years, due to its smaller size (seating capacity) and lack of a boarding bridge. This gate hold area was converted into a "Home Team Sports Bar" in 2007 (for this reason it is no longer considered a "Gate"). Currently 8 gates are used, on a daily basis, at Mid-Continent Airport. Gates 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10 and 12 have boarding bridges. Gates 4, 7, 8 and 11 do not have boarding bridges (aka:jet bridge), passengers must walk outside of the airport terminal on the Tarmac to board or de-plane (departing or arriving) aircraft at these four gates.

Famous quotes containing the words current, airport, passenger and/or terminal:
“Our current obsession with creativity is the result of our continued striving for immortality in an era when most people no longer believe in an after-life.”
—Arianna Stassinopoulos (b. 1950)
“Airplanes are invariably scheduled to depart at such times as 7:54, 9:21 or 11:37. This extreme specificity has the effect on the novice of instilling in him the twin beliefs that he will be arriving at 10:08, 1:43 or 4:22, and that he should get to the airport on time. These beliefs are not only erroneous but actually unhealthy.”
—Fran Lebowitz (b. 1950)
“Every American travelling in England gets his own individual sport out of the toy passenger and freight trains and the tiny locomotives, with their faint, indignant, tiny whistle. Especially in western England one wonders how the business of a nation can possibly be carried on by means so insufficient.”
—Willa Cather (1876–1947)
“All sin tends to be addictive, and the terminal point of addiction is what is called damnation.”
—W.H. (Wystan Hugh)
