Abstract
The World Gateway Terminal at Miami International Airport (MIA) is under construction. This 1.3 billion dollar Terminal is designed to prepare for the continued growth in travel demands at MIA and will be used by American Airlines as its Latin American Hub. The construction of the new Terminal will include significant demolition of existing concourses, modernization of existing space, and adding new facilities and special systems. All must take place while the airport continues to operate at full capacity. A major element of the Terminal is an APM system. This system is designed to be integrated with other airport functions to provide required transportation services, enhance the overall Terminal operational performance, and improve the passenger level of service.
