    In 1976, the airport leased 6 acres of land to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to be used for the team's headquarters and training site.

    Use the cell phone lot for picking up someone.. big sign with arrivals, bathrooms, concession, free wifi. The only thing that would be better is if they had a view of the runway..

    Get the air shuttle bus to rent a car. Lots of people at Enterprise. I I would probably go for Avis or Budget.

    Keeping liquids in checked baggage is always your best bet, but if you aren’t checking luggage, predetermine how much liquid security allows and plan ahead to avoid losing your favorite shampoo!

    If u have time to kill before a flight, head over to the Marriott bar and pool. There are couches and big nice chairs to relax in and watch some tv

    Don't panic, Starbucks in main and outlying terminals. You'll need ticket & ID to board trams to gates then again to get to the gates coming off tram. Moves quickly, TSA pros.

    One of the nicest airports I've been to in the US. Simple, and easy to get around, free WiFi & smoking areas before & after security (at least for airside C)!

    While Economy parking is cheapest, it also takes some 30 min to get to your car. Long term gets me on my car in 5.

    Don’t fight the departure drop-off traffic at Blue terminal, drive to the end and turn right on the one-way street to let people out in peace.

    Not a fan of the "Immediate Unloading ONLY" for picking up for guests... You either have to keep circling or just sit in the SHORT TERM PARKING till your party is ready for pick-up.

    If you fly Delta or United often, register for TSA PreCheck and you might be able to skip the long security lines. www.djgwk.com
