 The airport facilities are currently undergoing a major, $340 million expansion project which will add new terminals and parking facilities. The ultimate master plan for the project will increase gate capacity to 34.
-San Antonio International Airport currently has two terminals with 24 jet-bridge gates (as well as 3 seldom-used ground-loading gates). The original one-level terminal (now Terminal 2) opened in 1953 with ground-loading holding areas and was expanded twice, once in 1959 with new east and west wings and again in 1968 with an 8-gate satellite concourse. A second terminal (now Terminal 1) opened in 1984 with a 16-gate concourse.

Gates 1-2 and 10-11 have direct access to the FIS.
 The two-level parking garage immediately across from Terminal 1 opened in 1982. The FAA control tower became operational in 1986. And the five-level parking garage opened in 1999.
