From my company email;
Star Alliance begins move to new South Terminal at Miami Airport. Star Alliance member carrier US Airways has relocated to the new South Terminal at Miami International Airport, completing the first step in a collocation project which will in future see all five Star Alliance member carriers operating from the same terminal. Member carrier United is scheduled to move later in October 2007, with Lufthansa and SWISS moving on November 1st, 2007 and Air Canada following suit by mid-November.
Located in the new concourse J, the 50 shared ticketing and check-in counters form the backbone of this new development and will allow the five
member carriers to improve customer service, while at the same time lower operational costs. Monitors located behind each counter will identify the airline while also displaying the Star Alliance logo. Arriving passengers will
also benefit from the new Terminal. The new international arrivals facility can handle up to 2,000 passengers per hour and with international and domestic flights using the same concourse, passengers transferring between the five alliance member carriers will be able to connect between flights faster than before. In addition, all five member carriers will share one common Star Alliance branded baggage services facility, which customers can contact in case of any luggage irregularity. The five Star Alliance member carriers serving Miami – Air Canada, Lufthansa, SWISS, United and US Airways operate more than 100 weekly flights out of Miami, serving destinations in the USA as well as Canada, Germany and Switzerland.
