Flying American Airlines through Bob Hope Airport made easier

With our free press under threat and federal funding for public media gone, your support matters more than ever. Help keep the LAist newsroom strong, become a monthly member or increase your support today during our fall member drive. 

BURBANK — American Airlines passengers traveling through Bob Hope Airport in Burbank will soon have the ticket counter and passenger gate in the same terminal.

Beginning Thursday, the American Airlines ticket counter will be moved from Terminal A to Terminal B, airport officials announced.

The American Airlines passenger gate is located in Terminal B, but the ticket counter has been in Terminal A. The relocated counter will be in Terminal B adjacent to the security checkpoint leading to the American Airlines gate.

"The passengers will enter Terminal B and find the American Airlines ticket counter within a few feet of the main doorway, and they will no longer have to walk from Terminal A to Terminal B after they check in,'' said Denis Carvill, director of contracts and properties for the airport.

American Airlines provides four daily non-stop flights from Burbank to Dallas/Fort Worth.

At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.

But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.

We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.

Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
