Nicknamed the ‘Blue Box’, the original rectangular Raleigh Durham Airport Terminal 1 was constructed using blue corrugated metal that made it dark and uninviting. Designed before TSA Protocols were in place and the concepts of safety and control of passenger flow were developed, the interior was confusing. There was a haphazard sequence of arriving, ticketing, TSA screening and departure, causing stress and poor passenger experience.
