From Newsday:
Southwest Airlines, one of the few profitable carriers in an industry plagued by bankruptcies, Monday announced plans to build four more gates at Long Island MacArthur Airport as part of a $71-million expansion program.
The Dallas-based airline, already the largest operator at the Ronkonkoma airport, will have eight gates once the construction is completed sometime in 2006. Southwest, which now has 26 daily departures from Islip town-owned MacArthur, could have as many as 80 per day several years from now, airline officials said. Construction is scheduled to begin next year.
