Mesa Gateway Airport In-Line Checked Baggage Improvements

The Weitz Company was selected by Mesa Gateway Airport to manage the preconstruction and construction of a new in-line checked baggage facility aimed at significantly enhancing baggage capacity. This project includes a 10,000-12,000 square foot building housing updated conveyor systems that will boost the airport’s baggage handling from 200 to 800 bags per hour, supported by two primary and one backup L3 screening machines. The estimated cost of the project is $30 million and began in September 2025, with completion anticipated by Q4 2027.
