Concourse L was constructed in 1982-83 as an addition to the 1962 Terminal 3. Its original occupant was Delta Air Lines, who had previously outgrown its quarters on the end of Concourse H. In the 1980s, Delta had a large operation in Chicago and needed most of the 10 gates. For a while, space was subleased to Britt Airways and other regional airlines. Also, Delta handled departures of certain international airlines such as Lufthansa and Japan Air. Over time, Delta ceded use of several "L" gates to the expanding American Airlines. In 2009, as part of its merger with Northwest Airlines, Delta announced that it would move all operations to Terminal 2, leaving behind its 1980s heirloom concourse.
The innermost gates of Concourse L can accommodate "Group 3" narrowbody aircraft such as the MD-80 and 757. The middle section gates handle "Group 4" widebody aircraft such as the 767 and A310. The outermost gates are capable of "Group 5" aircraft such as the 747, 777 and A340.
