    Terminal 2 has a nice sitting area with a book store, Starbucks, and restaurant before you have to hit security. If you have a long layover and are meeting with someone, do it there.

    Big airport, but layout is easy and cleaner than most. Always pick up on North curb. Make sure to arrive early and ppl watch. Welcome to some dry heat ☀️

    There is a good work desk and charging station by gate A17. Grab a dirty chai latte from Peet's coffee and settle in and get caught up on your emails.

    Check for signs on mobile check-ins for TSA at Checkpoint D. It’ll allow you to save your spot in the TSA line!

    Give yourself sufficient time to drop off your car rental. Plus, gas stations in area are more expensive than the rest of the city!

    So many amazing restaurants that represent the PHX culture. Plenty to do while you wait.

    La Grande Orange (I think that's the name of the restaurant) has excellent food but a terrible setup. Ordering and getting your food can be confusing but it's worth the hassle. Music's good too!

    Very nice airport, went to a great Mexican restaurant while waiting for a flight back to FL. Nice places to shop and if you need a ride to get to your gate they have these free cool cart drivers.

    Matt's Big Breakfast is now open! This place in downtown always has a line of loyal customers. So great to have them inside security for those morning flights!

    Looking for a great gluten free option at the airport? Check out La Grande Orange in the D terminal. The gluten free pizza was tasty - get the margherita!

    While free wi-fi is much appreciated, can't find a recharge outlet at any gate to save your life. Oh, the irony!

    Try the Barfly restaurant. Local food served fast by friendly people. I had the fish and chips with a local ale and was surprised by how good it was. Not your typical airport food.

    Go to the Cartel Coffee Lab. It's is near C13 and a fine hand-crafted cup of brown water!

    TSA pre-check in terminal 4 takes less than 5 minutes No matter how many people are in line. They have 2 lanes and you fly right through. Love TSA pre-check!!

    La Grande Orange near the D gates has good coffee and breakfast food. I'm not a vegetarian - their Zuni Burrito (has tofu in it) is really good.

    Wendy's in terminal 3 between gate 18-19 doesn't serve hamburgers till after 10am. $9.00 steak & egg burrito across the way is the best bet for breakfast.

    Looking for terminal 1 or 2? There isn’t one. Going from terminal 3 to 4? Well get ready to not know where to go AND THEN go back through security, even if it’s a domestic flight & same airline. 🤷‍♂️

    One of the better airports (once you’re inside). If security is more than 30 minutes at your gate, check security times at all gates for the fastest one, all gates are connected inside.

    PHX is like that nightmare you have when you're trying to escape, and it feels like you're running and not moving...the hall getting longer....this is what it's like connecting between flights.

    Parking at the airport is so 2003.. Take Light Rail to 44th Street & Washington, and connect to the PHX SkyTrain! #EasyPeasy

    You won't find any beverages other than water at the newsstand/news shops. Best place to find Coke/Diet Coke is at the CPK kiosk where there is not usually a line (like you will find at Pizza Hut et a

    Free wifi! Yay! But keep in mind it can sometimes be a bit slow so streaming video or downloads may be difficult. Best to keep it simple.

    When picking up, use the cell phone lot and tell your passenger to tell you exactly which door to go to... preferably a clear area. Saves time and you won't be "that guy" jamming up curbside pick-up!!

    The Mexican Grill in terminal b is legitimately good texmex. It's a little slow since they make everything on the spot, but it's a solid spot for food.

    You're at "America's Friendliest Airport!" Check out all the art everywhere and ask a Navigator if you have any questions (they're in purple jackets or shirts).

    Terminal four is where all the cool kids go. If you're going to buy a $12 drink or a $15 salad, do it here. Excellent restaurants, unfortunate prices.

    Wifi is free! Terminal 4 is the busiest. Get there early if you are flying Southwest or US Airways. This airport drops you in the middle of the city, which can be convenient.

    Recently, they have added so many new local restaurants: Joe's BBQ, LoLo's Chicken & Waffles, and Olive & Ivy just to name a few

    Don't miss a real Italian espresso at Cartel Coffee Shop, in the C gate area. To have the true Italian experience pay for a single shot but ask to stop at 'half'.

    If you are flying with US Airways, make sure that you come in three hours before you domestic flight. Even if you checked in and paid for the bags online, you may spend up to 90 min in lines.

    The shops and restaurants close at 9 pm. If you are unlucky enough to be on a late flight or red eye, be prepared to be hungry and thirsty by the time your flight leaves. Pretty poor customer service!

    Be prepared to hunt for an available outlet if you need to work or charge a phone or laptop. And if you think about looking around other concourses, you're in for a hike! Be prepared.

    Did you know? The Hohokam people occupied the land that is now Phoenix between 700 A.D. and 1400 A.D. They built a city and a sophisticated irrigation system consisting of about 135 miles of canals. Read more

    If you're checking a bag for Delta late at night, go up 2 floors to the ticket counter. Faster than the downstairs check in.

    Home base for US Airways. Plentiful food and shopping options no matter where you are. Expect to do a lot of waking if your flight is in terminal 3.
