AirTain station at SFO’s Harvey Milk Terminal 1 to re-open on Wednesday

Getting to San Francisco International Airport’s Harvey Milk Terminal 1 will get a lot easier for travellers from tomorrow with the re-opening of the facility’s AirTrain people mover station.

The station has been closed since July 2021 to facilitate construction of a connection to the new terminal.

According to SFO, AirTrain vehicles will begin stopping at the Harvey Milk Terminal 1 station after 3am on April 26th.

The move will mean that passengers can travel across a connector to arrive in the terminal on the mezzanine level and will then take an elevator or escalator down to the departures level for airline check-in and security checkpoint screening.

Passengers exiting Harvey Milk Terminal 1 will continue to be directed to the AirTrain station located in the International Terminal.

The gateway notes that travellers arriving from the re-opened AirTrain station will have an opportunity to experience the SFO Museum exhibit Harvey Milk: Messenger of Hope, which features photos, correspondence, and campaign materials.

It provides a glimpse into Harvey Milk’s life, including his activism and ascendance as a political leader in San Francisco, his tragic assassination, and his legacy of advocating for diversity, equity, and inclusion that lives on today.
