    One of the most convenient airports to fly in and out of. Mostly serves American Airlines/US Airways and Southwest Airlines.

    Use early bag check at 44th street, east economy lot or car rental center to avoid the long lines at the terminal.

    For your connecting flight, rest assured that US Airways have chosen the farthest gate possible for you to get late to there !!

    Nice airport. If you are returning a rental car, plan for suffient time to return the car in the rental car center and then take the shuttle to the terminal. Over 30 min

    Found out the hard way after United Flight was cancelled and rebooked to American, if you have to commute from Terminal A to Terminal B then you will have to go through TSA again. Not fun!

    Simple airport to move around through. I love how you can buy a cactus to bring home.

    Main terminal before security has lots of good non-fast food options. Free wifi. After security pickings are more slim, but there is a decent French bistro

    Most of the good restaurants and shops and Starbucks are before security (at least at Gate D anyway) - so enjoy them before hand.

    Heading to downtown Phoenix? Look for the shuttle bus which takes you to the METRO light rail station at 44th and Washington. Hop on the westbound train, your first downtown stop is 3rd/Washington.

    For coffee lovers, term 4 finally has a Peets Coffee by the D gates. Do much better than Starbucks.

    Free wi-fi (wouldn't expect less) but they need places to charge my phone & laptop! Great view of Camelback Mountain if you're on the right side of the plane.

    Be forewarned that switching airlines usually means switching terminals... Which means exiting and reentering via security! :( that said, there's a great inter-terminal bus that runs every 15 min.

    Spare yourself the sweating. Train is good to terminal 4 ONLY! Add a bus and 1.5 mile walk to your journey just to get to other terminals

    Good good options, and they're in the process of adding/renovating much needed bathrooms at the end of all the Terminal 4 gates. The lack of outlets though is a major headache.

    Use the cell phone parking lot to wait...don't sit in front of the doors in your car because security will make you leave.

    That moment when you are standing at the gate, heading to Detroit and "Don't Stop Believin'" comes on the sound system and EVERYONE starts singing "BORN AND RAISED IN SOUTH DETROIT"...

    The cops told me if you go to the sports bar in terminal 2 DO NOT have the chili cheese dog before boarding your plane. You will regret it.

    Those into boating should RUN the other direction. This place is FULL of airplanes. Obnoxious aviation enthusiasts too.

    On the plane is definitely better than in the terminal if you are leaving on a jet plane. Even if you do know when you will be back again.

    It’s an ok airport but much of it is quite dated. Someone needs to go thru every terminal of this airport and update and renovate this place. Phoenix is a major airport and should be modernized.
