FULL STORY: Inside a new luxury Miami airport terminal: Suites, caviar, privacy \u2014 for a price<\/a><\/p>\nHere are key takeaways:<\/p>\n
The terminal: PS, a Los Angeles-based company, has built a private luxury terminal at 4900 NW 36th St., on the site of the original Pan American Regional Headquarters. It\u2019s the fourth such terminal at a U.S. airport.The experience: Travelers get valet parking, a private lobby, lounges or one of five private suites, spa treatments, a full menu and bar, plus private TSA screening. A BMW then drives guests across the tarmac to their commercial flight.The price tag: One-time use starts at $1,295 per person for the shared salon and $4,950 for a private suite for up to four people. Annual memberships run $1,250 or $4,850, with per-visit fees still required.The target customer: PS CEO Amina Belouizdad Porter said the terminal targets travelers in the gap between a $3,000 first-class ticket and roughly $100,000 for a private jet on a Los Angeles-to-Miami round trip. County documents from 2021 identified the demographic as \u201cfrequent affluent travelers who value status.\u201dThe deal with the county: Miami-Dade County approved the project in 2023 under a 20-year contract. MIA will receive at least $600,000 annually in rent or 7.5% of gross revenues, whichever is higher. Airport CEO Ralph Cuti\u00e9 estimated the contract will generate $16 million in revenue for MIA over its life.Historic preservation: The building, designed by Miami firm Steward-Skinner and Associates, once housed Pan Am\u2019s Flight Attendant Training School. PS preserved Pan Am logos, gold paneling, reflecting pools and the winding staircase once used to teach students posture. It\u2019s the only Pan Am building with historical protection, designated in 2014.<\/p>\n
