    The TSA staff here is among the best anywhere. Everyone is very friendly and the security process is very pleasant. I love this airport!!!

    I'm in a different airport almost every week because of work...this one is super easy and quick. And everyone was incredibly nice.

    Quick and easy airport to get in and out of. Luckily was a quick trip so was just dealing with a carry-on. Security was amazingly quick as smaller airports are usually a nightmare.

    Best airport ever to leave from. Security is calm cool and collected. No screaming at customers here.

    Watch out for the guy who works at the gift shop near the gates. He cuts his nails/files them and talks on the phone (inappropriate subjects) while customers are checking out.

    "Wearin' a belt today?" is a thing the really cool TSA guy asked me. You can respond with "Yes. I was feeling fancy" or "What?!?!?!" then run away shrieking in horror.

    I'm not sure what international flights this one makes, because it's very small, but it's the most chill airport I've ever been to.

    Don't wear shiny clothes like sweaters with sparkly silver thread. The machines pick it up as suspicious on the full body scan. Nice TSA pros.

    If it is raining, forget about it. No parking garage and no parking lot shuttle. But you can get a bottle of Aquafina for 3 bucks

    Leave ample time+ for morning flights. TSA line can get backed up.

    No direct flights to Baltimore, but the airport itself is quaint. And p.s. Daniel at the National car rental desk is a sweetpea.

    Better than the State Fair, IMHO-- but then again I have a borderline phobia of large crowds.

    same food and bevy on either side of security. also, "choice of garnish" on the $10 bloody mary means "olives or not..."

    Alligent Air has the cheapest flights to Orlando-Sanford. Don't check your bags and print your boarding pass online to go straight to security!

    Flying to Charlotte on the 5:20am? Security does not open until 4:30am, so take your time getting to the airport.

    Google maps sometimes sends you to the private plane entrance on the wrong side of the airport so follow the road signs.
