Review for new airport: cannot even compare to the old one! SO NICE! Two local coffee shops, Dunkin, a ton of local restaurants, shops, plenty of seating with chargers. Cannot say enough good things!Upvoted 4 weeks ago
Wow. This airport is now awesome. Normally I would have avoided MCI at all costs, now there’s loads to do here and great local vendors.Upvoted 19 hours ago
On February 28, 2023, the new single-terminal Kansas City International Airport opened to travelers. A new era for Kansas City!

The new airport is gorgeous! And had so many restaurants! And they’re OPEN! 🤗
Looking for coffee without a wait? Skip the lines. There’s a small self-serve drip coffee kiosk behind Parisi’s Coffee (Parisi PRONTO).
Easiest airport to fly in or out of. There isn't much food once you go through security. I only fly Southwest in terminal B and there is a Quiznos and Starbucks once you are through security.
Nan PalmeroAugust 12, 2011Be sure to not leave Kansas City without visiting Jack Stack. Get Fiorella's Jack Stack Barbecue KC All Purpose Rub.
Jane MMay 26, 2024Read how to use Clear for the first time. They won’t help you if you ask. Finish enrolling before going through security.
Haven’t been through here in about ten years and wow, what a huge improvement over the old circle terminals.- Not too busy or confusing. Pretty clean and modern
Don't land here and say "I'm in Kansas!" You're actually in Missouri.Upvoted Nov 25, 2024
Louis GroffNovember 19, 2010If you want to get to another city without driving to it, come here and get on an airplane.
MCI is one of the few airport in the nation to not use TSA agents and uses private security. Following TSA guidelines, say hello to FirstLine Aviation SecurityDownvoted Nov 25, 2024
I already mentioned this to the developers, at least twice before the reopening. However, signage is very much needed both inside the terminal and outside also.
Heading to @NeurIPSConf, #NeurIPS2023 in #NOLA. @BuildKCI looks impressive! Finally, a nice, modern-looking place to @Fly_KansasCity.
My friend is going to Oregon for 40° weather while I anticipate negative f-temps while I watch her dogs
Get food before you come to the airport there is not much here...
Such an easy airport! Quick in, quick out. Just wish @united had a club here.Downvoted Nov 25, 2024

Security lines are short here: do yourself a favor & eat outside your gate area to save money.Downvoted Nov 25, 2024
A great place to find airplanes in their natural habitat.Downvoted Nov 25, 2024
Terminal B Southwest now has Starbucks INSIDE security.Downvoted Nov 25, 2024
Ernest SmythAugust 18, 2010Eat before coming to the airport! And of you didn't, then eat what there is before going through security. At least this goes for the terminal where one finds American Airlines...Downvoted Nov 25, 2024
Andrew WhiteJuly 28, 2011It's Kansas and you're leaving. There's no downside here.Downvoted Nov 25, 2024
Sandy MorrowFebruary 23, 2012Worst. Airport. Ever. If you have a layover here make sure you bring lots to keep you entertained.Downvoted Nov 25, 2024
David GielanDecember 28, 2009Eat before you go through security because there is nothing on the other side.
Matt BrineyApril 23, 2010This is the worst airport in world. Bring your food in from another city because there is nothing here!Downvoted Nov 25, 2024
Paul GiarratanaApril 28, 2012Come to the tips to hear people cry about food. The airport is designed to get you in and out, not for you to stuff your fat face with fast food.Downvoted Nov 25, 2024
Unlike most airports which feel almost like cities, once you go through security at KCI it feels more like an abandoned shopping mallDownvoted Nov 25, 2024- Flying Southwest? Check out the new Starbucks *inside* the gate area.Downvoted Nov 25, 2024
Nope, there isn't much to do and it feels very small...but that's why you get off your plane and are 100 feet from ground transport - easiest airport around.Downvoted Nov 25, 2024
