United Terminal Change At KCI Delayed

United Airlines and Air Canada were supposed to move Wednesday night from Terminal A to Terminal C at Kansas City International Airport, but those plans got delayed. 

KCI spokesman Joe McBride says technical issues were to blame.

“As they were getting into the eleventh hour of the move, the computer technology was not all coming on line,” said McBride. “So it looked like the airline was not going to have the ability to check people in be it at the ticket counter or the kiosk.”

McBride says he expects the terminal change will take place early next week. 

KCI plans to close Terminal A next year once United, Air Canada and US airways have moved out.

For updates, travelers are advised to check with the airline or the airport’s Facebook page or Twitter account.
