That makes 19,659,830 in the last 12 months.

Potentially over 22 million total px (appx 11.5-12M boardings) which is amazing for a non-hub.

This jabroni tried to drive a tractor trailer into the departure at BNA today.

Wow! That’s incredible stupidity. (And why did security not stop an 18 wheeler driving up to the terminal?)

Does that sign not say 8' clearance Clarence! No parking in the red zone.

And why wouldn't he just go to the left where there is clearly nothing overhead to worry about lol ?

The red zone is for immediate loading and unloading of passengers only. There is no stopping in the white zone.

The search function is not cooperating with me, how far away is the Hilton from topping out?

I think it’s 11 floors, and I counted 8, so maybe 3 more floors.

Does anyone know if/when the direct to Paris will occur? Seems like it was mentioned about a year ago but haven’t heard anything since. Thanks!

No airline has picked up a nonstop Nashville to Paris yet.  The opening of the new international terminal will be a big selling point for additional routes to Europe and beyond!

Shake shack not quite open yet at the C dogleg. I've also noticed there is zero loveless cafe merch in the south terminal, feel like every store used to sell something from them. Lots of generic confections in a box with pictures of downtown on it, seems this place is going corporate.

I thought it was open when I came through  a couple of times last week...didn't it open in September?

There have been rumors of a Paris route floating around for a while, but like @nashscanmentioned we probably won't see any airlines seriously consider additional transatlantic connections until after the international terminal is finished and the economy has stabilized a bit.

Honestly not sure, I went from 60 segments a year to 8 over the last 18 months. It was the only place that wasn't open at 9am, figured it was still under construction. They have a breakfast menu posted so it just as easily could have been a staffing issue. 

Coming in tonight fully expecting pandemonium.

It was open on the 19th for sure.

Are there any renderings around of what the ground level with the rental car counters is going to look like upon completion?  At the moment, there is the one escalator/staircase on each side going down from baggage claim level, and then you arrive down on ground level with those somewhat low ceilings,    but of course the entire central section still has temporary walls.  There has been plenty of  visibility of the renderings of what the main hall up above will look like,  trying to get a sense of what the end game is down on that ground level and then what final connectivity will look like from that ground level to the two Terminal Garages.
