EmJune 18, 2012What I've always loved about this airport as an airline employee is how great I've always been treated as a non-revenue passenger. Commuting is hard, but the agents here made it easier. :)Upvoted Nov 3, 2024
Chuck La TournousNovember 2, 2010My favorite airport in the world. Always try here as an alternative to EWR. Free WiFi, short lines, rocking chairs, friendly people. Charming and convenient!Upvoted Dec 13, 2024
If you don't have a seat be nice and wait they will call your name if they have a seat I HOPE I GET A SEAT SOON THOUGH LOL
Like most regional airports, navigating ABE is easy enough. There aren’t many food options, as one might expect. Rental cars are kind of odd, as the lot is mixed with other parking.- Great airport early flights are the best for Delta thru Atlanta
Travelers! If you're looking for information on things to do, where to eat or where to stay while in Lehigh Valley, go to
The brand new security checkpoint is now on the top floor, by passenger drop off, just beyond the airline desk area.
Anastasia GiorgiovaDecember 28, 2022American Airlines does NOT allow you to bring on your American approved size carry on & will put it under the plane. You wait for it after you land then RUN to make your connecting flight on time.
Starting in February, Allegiant will be flying out of ABE as a HUB. Good news: more flight options Bad news: more TSA traffic, give yourself a little extra time if you’re a frequent traveler
Great little airport with friendly staff. Look for the free library where you can take or leave a book.
Pinay PrincesaSeptember 24, 2010If u live in PA, plan 2 travel out of state or country, it's easier to book your flights here and very convenient than having 2 travel and get lost going to Newark, JFK, or LaGuardia airport.
I love lvia. It is consistent in how long it takes to get here as opposed to driving to the Philly airport, which sometimes takes one hour and sometimes two and a half hours.
Kathie DiPolitoAugust 5, 2013Very nice airport! St Petersburg/Clearwater airport needs to take a look at Lehigh Valley airport and refurbish theirs!!!!!- Continental and United are two different ticket areas if you are checking in at the airport. So if you bought a ticket from Continental for a United flight checkin at the United counter
Johna CarufelMarch 16, 2018TSA pre check closes when the regular line gets too long i.e an hour before departures. To make it even better the escalator up to the gate was broken so you have to carry your luggage up the steps.- Great security. Not stressful. Nice direct flights to Florida! The new cafe just opened up.
Fr. John PendzickOctober 7, 2012I like this small airport, friendly, quick through security.... However every time I fly to Chicago the flight gets delayed. Spend more time waiting for the plane then on it.
Cheryl DaumerAugust 25, 2013We will NEVER go to the airshow again. we bought our tickets,got our handstamp and when we went out to sit in our car for a while. Within a few minutes we were told we couldn't sit in the lot.- stilljointMarch 12, 2011Don't forget you can always park off to the side for up to 30 minutes in their "in the car pickup section" as long as you stay in the car!!!
Rob HemmerichSeptember 17, 2014"Flights" to ewr from here are actually buses, boarded opposite the United counter on departures level. No security to deal with.
Tara DelongJune 22, 2013I think the airlines are in cahoots with the inside cafes...delays so we eat at the cafes & snack shops...ha ha- EmJune 18, 2012@DJRiskeOne: Learn to use the "tips" on Foursquare properly before you start critiquing everyone else. ;)
Best place to fly in and out of if you live in the valley. So convenient.
Nice, convenient, small airport. But like most small airports, breakfast and coffee options are best found elsewhere.
There's actually a few nice beers on tap if you need to kill some time.
It's very easy - there's never a line for security or check-in.
Very convenient for getting from Toronto to eastern PA, I fly here direct rather than sit for hours in EWR or PHL waiting to connect for AVP.
Sarah LarsonJanuary 5, 2012We much prefer this over Philly. Security is friendly and it's much less stressful.
Reservation kiosk only own M-F. Can't get the special on the weekend.
Maria BlaineMarch 26, 2012The fastest airport to go through... Dropped off the rental, checked in, and got through security in less than 30mins.

Amanda AnnSeptember 24, 2010If you buy a drink after going through security, be prepared to have it searched again!
