Travelers at New York City's LaGuardia Airport will be able to enjoy United Airlines' new gates on the Terminal B Eastern Concourse starting June 2, following the first phase of the $4 billion, 1.3-million-square-foot redevelopment project.

Operated by LaGuardia Gateway Partners, Terminal B offers soaring ceilings up to 55-feet high, plenty of natural light, thirteen new shops, restaurants and services. All of the establishments will be inspired by the best of New York.

The new concourse at the NYC airport features ample gate seating, charging stations, free unlimited high-speed Wi-Fi, a park area, an airport-themed children's play area, restrooms with large stalls and more.

"United customers depend on LaGuardia for frequent service to key business cities such as Chicago and Denver and the new Terminal B represents a huge improvement in the facilities we are able to provide, including a gorgeous new United Club," United regional president Jill Kaplan said in a statement. "A world-class city like New York deserves a state-of-the-art airport - which is why we are absolutely thrilled to be moving our operations to the spectacular new Terminal B Eastern Concourse at LaGuardia Airport."

In addition, the airline will open its newest United Club on June 2. Conveniently located after security near United's gates, the new club offers a private oasis of 10,500 square feet with sweeping views of the tarmac.

Within the new Terminal B Eastern Concourse at LaGuardia Airport, United will operate out of five gates, offering more than 40 daily flights, including service to Chicago's O'Hare, Washington-Dulles and more.
