Terminal Foundation On May 30, 1965, the terminal of the CAE airport opened, which later was renovated in 1997. The renovation of the terminal was designed by Woodrum, Heyward, Fant & Associates, Ltd. The new terminal replaced the former terminal, which was built in the early 1950s. Even the old terminal was a replacement of a terminal that was built several years earlier, rather than in the early 1950s. Since the late 1980s, new capital improvements were undertaken, which included an expanded and renovated terminal, a new parking garage, and the runways were lengthened. Current Terminal The CAE terminal features several customer services, such as gift shops, restaurants, bars, and the Everett Adams Memorial Chapel, all located inside the terminal building. Columbia Metropolitan Airport’s terminal consists of one 2-level passenger terminal, along with three passenger security lanes that are available at peak travel period. Lower Level
