On Thursday, July 10, the future of luxury air travel in Miami took off in style as PS (formerly known as The Private Suite) broke ground on its highly anticipated new terminal at Miami International Airport (MIA). In true Miami fashion, the celebration was a chic, open house-style event with remarks from Amina Porter, CEO of PS; Ralph Cutié, Director & CEO of MIA; and Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava, among other civic leaders and partners.

PS MIA, slated to open in Spring 2026, marks a milestone as the first private terminal for commercial passengers at MIA, offering travelers an elevated, crowd-free alternative to the traditional airport experience—complete with TSA and customs clearance onsite. The new terminal is not just an expansion of PS’ signature luxury—it’s a restoration project, transforming the former Pan American Airways headquarters into a serene and opulent pre- and post-flight haven.

The forthcoming PS terminal is housed in a Miami-Dade County Historical Site, designated in 2014. The building—an icon of mid-century brutalist architecture—was once the beating heart of Pan Am’s global empire. Now, under the discerning eye of renowned interior designer Cliff Fong and the historic restoration team at RJ Heisenbottle Architects, the space is undergoing a thoughtful transformation.

Guests at the groundbreaking were treated to a first-look walkthrough of the design plans, which aim to honor the structure’s gold-paneling, reflecting pools, and original Pan Am logos. The refreshed space will artfully blend natural textures with rich tropical hues, capturing the essence of Miami’s vibrant energy with the refinement of PS’ signature ambiance.

Once open, PS MIA will provide guests with a truly private and peaceful airport experience—no lines, no crowds, no stress. Designed for those who value privacy and comfort as much as convenience, the terminal will feature:

• Five Private Suites with dedicated security, customs, and TSA clearance
• Two Salons with full-service dining and curated lounge experiences
• An Outdoor Courtyard designed for a moment of calm under the Miami sun
• A Day Spa offering massages and beauty treatments
• Personalized service from PS Hosts who handle everything from check-in to tarmac transportation

Guests will arrive at PS via a private entrance and are seamlessly whisked from lounge to aircraft via BMW 7 Series sedans, bypassing the main terminal entirely.

The groundbreaking in Miami is part of PS’ growing footprint, which began at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) and recently expanded to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL)—with Paris marking its first international location at Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG).

At PS LAX, Hollywood A-listers, business moguls, and luxury travelers regularly opt for the white-glove service that includes private suites with ensuite bathrooms, curated meals by renowned chefs, and full bar service—all steps away from their flight.

In Atlanta, the design reflects southern hospitality infused with PS’ elevated sensibility—think: handwoven textiles, custom lighting, and gourmet comfort food.

And in Paris, PS has partnered with Air France La Première to deliver a seamless, ultra-private terminal experience on European soil, offering their signature blend of discretion, design, and hospitality with a Parisian flair. Guests can expect full TSA and customs coordination, private suite service, and direct tarmac transport to their aircraft—just with a French twist.

Each location is uniquely tailored to its city’s character, yet maintains PS’ gold standard of travel luxury. With Miami joining the club in 2026, PS is solidifying itself as the definitive name in pre-flight indulgence for the modern jetsetter.

“Miami is a city that knows how to do things with style—and we are proud to bring a travel experience that matches that energy,” said PS CEO Amina Porter. “Restoring the iconic Pan Am building to usher in a new era of luxury and ease is a full-circle moment, and we can’t wait to welcome travelers to PS MIA.” “MIA is one of the most vibrant and dynamic airports in the world, and the addition of PS signals our commitment to meeting the needs of every type of traveler,” added Ralph Cutié, CEO of Miami International Airport.

Mayor Daniella Levine Cava echoed the sentiment, calling PS MIA “an exciting moment for Miami-Dade County’s continued leadership in travel, design, and hospitality.”

As travelers increasingly seek more personalized, elevated travel experiences, PS’ expansion comes at a perfect time—and in perfect Miami style. When it opens its doors in 2026, PS MIA will stand not just as a private terminal, but a love letter to the golden age of air travel—with all the comforts of modern luxury.

Tequila Don Julio turned up the volume and style on a balmy Miami summer night as Mexican singer Camila Fernandez lit up the rooftop of trendy Astra restaurant and bar with a soulful acoustic showcase that blended modern artistry with her rich cultural roots.

The evening, hosted in partnership with Tequila Don Julio, Universal Music Latin, and Fono, unfolded under the stars in true Wynwood fashion: breezy, bold, and undeniably magnetic. Camila serenaded guests with a live performance of her latest single “No Puedo Dormir Sin Ti.” Her voice effortlessly enthralled the crowd, proving why she’s one of Mexico’s most captivating young talents. As the daughter of legendary Mexican singer, Alejandro Fernández, known around the world as El Potrillo, Camila is no stranger to the spotlight. But on this night, she claimed it entirely for herself, with a voice that’s both timeless and current.

The music was only part of the story. In a beautiful nod to heritage, guests were treated to a curated display of Camila’s iconic Mariachi performance outfits—rich with embroidery, color, and character—bringing a tactile sense of tradition into the elevated, open-air space. It was a celebration of Mexico past and present, glamour and grit, wrapped in silk and stitched with soul.

At the heart of the evening was Tequila Don Julio, setting the tone with meticulously crafted cocktails that were as vibrant and expressive as the night itself. Attendees sipped standouts like the La Caminera (with Don Julio Blanco), Una Vida (with Reposado), and the fan-favorite Se Cancela La Llorada (featuring Don Julio 70 Añejo Cristalino), while enjoying a thoughtful spread of light bites under the Miami sky.

Then came the moment that made everyone’s phones fly up: a surprise appearance from Mexican pop sensation DANNA, sending waves of excitement across the rooftop and marking the evening as the summer kickoff the city didn’t know it needed.

No detail was overlooked. Guests were gifted mini bottles of Don Julio 1942, the ultra-premium tequila that’s become a staple of refined celebrations and unforgettable nights.

More than a party, the night launched Tequila Don Julio, Universal Music Latin, and Fono’s larger summer partnership—a cross-country celebration of Mexican artistry and heritage with upcoming stops in Los Angeles, Houston, and New York. But on this particular night, with the Miami breeze floating through bougainvillea and the sound of Mariachi-meets-modern echoing over the city, the magic was right there—on the rooftop.

Since quietly opening in 2023 at the ground level of Brickell City Centre, The Henry has become a neighborhood staple for those who appreciate classic dishes with a modern twist, warm hospitality, and a touch of understated glamour. Brought to Miami by eleven-time James Beard Award nominee Sam Fox—founder of Fox Restaurant Concepts—this all-day American Brasserie brings thoughtful design, approachable luxury, and impeccable execution to one of the city’s most fast-paced districts.

The setting is striking yet inviting. Located on the corner of Miami Avenue and 8th Street, The Henry seats 260 guests in a stylish space of white marble, caramel leather, warm woods, and cascading greenery. Whether you’re slipping into a banquette for brunch or meeting friends for cocktails at the 68-seat bar, the mood is effortlessly polished. Even the ventanita, open from 7 a.m., offers a chic grab-and-go moment for coffee and pastries.

Executive Chef Darren Thompson leads the kitchen with a menu that reflects both precision and personality. With a background that includes the legendary Commander’s Palace in New Orleans, his Southern roots are unmistakable in dishes like the signature crab cake—delicately crisped and served with a house remoulade that’s rich, complex, and absolutely unforgettable. It’s a dish that feels both comforting and elevated.

That same finesse carries through to dessert, where Thompson’s brown butter cake is rich with nutty warmth and the bread pudding is spiced, soulful, and perfectly plated. His dynamic presence is felt in every course, making even familiar favorites feel inspired.

The cocktail program, too, is thoughtfully curated. Sip the Thai Grapefruit Smash for something bright and zesty with subtle floral notes, or the Desert Bird, a tropical-meets-smoky blend of mezcal, pineapple, and lime that’s as balanced as it is bold. Of course, the Spicy Margarita—shaken with just the right amount of heat—remains a crowd favorite.

What elevates The Henry beyond its chic ambiance and well-executed menu is the service: gracious, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Whether you’re a first-timer or a weekend regular, the team makes every visit feel like an occasion.

From early breakfasts to stylish dinners and everything in between, The Henry continues to strike that rare balance of casual elegance and culinary excellence—firmly securing its place as a go-to in the Brickell dining scene.
