Ally the Allosaurus from @DinosaurNPS was officially unveiled today inside concourse B as part of the Salt Lake City International Airport Phase 3 opening! Allosaurus is the state fossil for Utah, & a fabulous ambassador for the state.

🚶🏽🚶🏽Dreams do come true. The walk between terminals in @slcairport is shorter. The River Tunnel, located right after you pass through security, is now open!
During your next trip, make sure to see the return of The World Map, the new "Northern Light" and Allosaurus skeleton installations, and a dozen new concessions in Concourse B.
