Philadelphia International Airport, Northeast Philadelphia Airport get new logos ahead of 2026

State of the Airport at Philadelphia International Airport ahead of 2026

As Philadelphia looks ahead to the massive influx of travelers coming to events like the World Cup matches, the MLB All-Star Game and other events in 2026, Philadelphia International Airport will be front and center as travelers fly into the city.

Officials unveiled new logos for PHL and Northeast Philadelphia Airport in a "State of the Airport" news conference on Wednesday to discuss updates about the progress in the Department of Aviation, which runs the city airports. 

The new logo, part of an overall brand refresh, features the letters "PHL" and "PNE" in lowercase, with a mix of light blue and the city's deep blue that you can also find on the Phillies' City Connect uniforms.

The department says the brand refresh was needed to differentiate the airports from competitors and connect with passengers, among other goals.

This was the second annual "State of the Airport" event. The inaugural event in 2024 fell on the same day J.D. Power's Overall Customer Satisfaction Index was released for airports, in which PHL placed last in the large airport category.

The airport received the same rank among large airports in this year's 2025 J.D. Power airport rankings.

Other enhancements have been completed since the last event, including improvements at eight restrooms. Eight more restrooms will be improved for 2026.

The department also celebrated the opening of the new American Airlines Flagship Lounge and Admirals Club this summer and the opening of the Chase Sapphire Lounge in February

Other improvements coming to PHL in the next year include:

  • New exit doors at Terminal D and Terminal E with murals that welcome visitors to Philadelphia
  • Major landscaping upgrades at terminals and new signage, carpets and seating in gate areas
  • Expanded nonstop service to Europe, including new service to Budapest and Prague in 2026, and Edinburgh and Milan in 2025.

Leaders said in the news conference that the two airports serve as the gateway for visitors to the myriad events coming in 2026.
