Extending LAWA’s commercial and development teams, URW partners with the many stakeholders with a tailored approach to transforming each terminal while creating one holistic experience across LAX that is authentically L.A., customized to the terminal’s unique customer profile, and drives significant sales and revenue growth.
URW continuously partners with LAWA to enhance and innovate guest experience, including the 2020 debut LAX Order Now, an airport-wide mobile platform for contactless ordering and pickup. URW continues to support the acceleration of LAX’s transformation, including most recently the opening of Bradley West Gates and the completion of the Delta Sky Way project.
LAX - Terminal 1
Following a celebrated redevelopment partnership among URW, Los Angeles World Airports, and Southwest Airlines, the award-winning new Terminal 1 create a new flagship experience for more than six million annual guests.
The $500 million curb-to-gate redevelopment features an exciting new dining and retail program amidst a modern, comfortable environment that captures Southwest’s fun, unconventional brand. Expanding the commercial program by more than 30% from pre-redevelopment, the new Terminal 1 showcases beloved local brands like Urth Caffé alongside nationally recognized stalwarts.
The transformation of Terminal 1 has been recognized with numerous accolades, including being named as a recipient of the Gold, Renovations & Expansions award by the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) in its 2019 North America Design and Development Awards.
