The tenants of the terminal wanted bigger and better facilities. In 1997 the Oklahoma City Airport Trust asked Landrum and Brown (an airport design consultancy) to look into the future needs of Will Rogers World Airport for the next 25 years. The new terminal has 18 gates and the architecture of the building uses native stone along with high ceilings, plate glass and metal.
The most recent phase (phase II) of the project was completed in November 2006.
In 20s-era concourses were demolished to make way for a larger, expanded terminal with modern facilities. The main terminal building was built in the 1960s and was badly in need of upgrading and expansion in 2001 when the first phase of the $110m expansion was instigated.
