Chick-fil-A, Chili's on Tap for Clinton National Airport

Chick-fil-A and Chili's are coming to the Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport, pending approval by the airport's commission.

The airport announced Tuesday that the two restaurants would open early next year as part of its concourse renovation. They would be operated by HMSHost and JQ Enterprises Inc.

The Little Rock Municipal Airport Commission must sign off on the deals, which are set to come before the commission on Feb. 21.

The airport's $20.6 million concourse renovation includes remodeling its current food and beverage vendors — Starbucks, Great American Bagel and Burger King — along with improvements to gate seating, jet bridges, the Wi-Fi system and restrooms.

"These changes are another way that we're improving the experience for our passengers," said Jim Dailey, chairman of the Little Rock Municipal Airport Commission. "Travelers will be able to enjoy four major national brands, which isn't typical for an airport of our size."

Two new retail shops are also set to open, operated by Hudson Group and Newburns Management Group, as part of renewed deals with the companies the airport has extended to 2028.
