Celebrities, corporate executives and other travelers will soon get to fly in style and with more privacy at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport.
The airport board of directors approved a 10-year lease agreement on Thursday with PS VIP Services to allow the company to open a private luxury terminal featuring amenities such as chef-prepared meals, chauffeur service and day beds. The board waived the airport’s minimum annual guarantee for the first two years of the contract, and PS will pay DFW rent of $32 million for the remaining seven years. The deal also includes a five-year option.
DFW will become PS’ third location. The company, started by security consulting firm Gavin de Becker & Associates, opened its first private terminal at Los Angeles international Airport in 2017. A second location will open at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport later this year. PS is no longer affiliated with Gavin de Becker.
PS’ 12,200-square-foot facility will sit adjacent to DFW’s corporate aviation complex located north of Terminal A. It will include the private suites in addition to a signature lounge concept offered by PS called “The Salon.” The design, amenities and chef-led culinary program will “reflect the uniqueness of Dallas and Fort Worth, blending Western heritage with modern, cosmopolitan sensibilities,” according to the company.
