A new terminal debuting at Baltimore-Washington International on May 18 will have a larger baggage claim area, more ticket counter space and new restaurants and stores. Terminal A/B will be used by Southwest Airlines. May 14 is open house, with tours from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. . . . Meanwhile, the recently unveiled $125 million expansion of Las Vegas's McCarran International will allow the nation's sixth-busiest airport to handle an estimated 3.1 million more passengers a year . . . Five of the world's top 10 large airports are in Asia, according to an annual survey of passenger satisfaction by the air transport research group Skytrax. Hong Kong International was No. 1; the top U.S. airport -- ranked 20th overall -- was Minneapolis-St. Paul International. The survey examined such qualities as airport services and design . . .
