TYS Knoxville airport completed a $70 million renovation and expansion project of its main terminal and concourses in the fall of 2000. The project included the construction of two new concourses, gates, ticket counters, elevators and escalators, passenger loading bridges, restrooms, gift shops and the first Ruby Tuesday airport restaurant in the nation.
