Claire LuhmanMarch 26, 2017Cutest little airport ever. Was very nice and a pleasant surprise coming from a larger airport like LAX (which is always under construction) or DIA (super easy to get lost in)
Great small airport. Be sure to smile for the camera when heading to baggage claim. The video feed is shown in the Welcome Lounge for people waiting on friends & family to exit.
KateApril 1, 2012The gift shop has some of the best Southwestern foodie souvenirs out of any shops in Tucson that I've visited. Grab a bottle or 2 of the Sonoran Seasoning by Chef Alan Zeman - it's great on everythingUpvoted 2 weeks ago
Abdullah AlhamoudSeptember 11, 2016Good small airport, however if you arrive at night everything will be closed.
Lisa AvilaJuly 10, 2013Great little airport... Short lines, getting through security is a breeze, lots of outlets and free wi-fi.
Steve KravitzJune 16, 2013I went to University of Arizona and lived in Tucson for a total of ten years. I flew in and of there quite often, and found it a very convenient airport to negotiate.
Do not place any high value items in your check on luggage!!- Fast security, friendly staff, free wifi, great views, no televisions blaring from every corner. Possibly my favorite airport (and I've been in a LOT of airports).
Katie VaughanDecember 17, 2018You can get coffee + breakfast sandwiches for early morning flights at either Dunkin Donuts or Beyond Bread. For later folks, there is also a full bar with food as well.
When picking up, get here early. Got me a hot pumpkin spice latte to enjoy while sitting in an oversized comfy-chair. Life is good at TIA.
Matthew BreuerNovember 4, 2018seems like a perfectly serviceable airport, difficult to find pickup spot for Lyft/Uber- Best WiFi speeds of any airport and it’s free!!!
Easy parking. On a busy day you may have to go to third row.
I am here 2 times a week every week of the year picking up my boyfriend the people are nice the shops always have everything I need and free wifi ❤❤❤
Michael J southbayfoodies.comSeptember 8, 2012Everyone waits at the end of the baggage claim where the bags come out when there's plenty of room on the other end. Spread out! :)
Centoria CarmenFebruary 29, 2016Wi-fi is easy and fast. If you're parking in the garage just follow the signs even though it looks like you're going away from the parking garage. The road comes back around.- Donna Leigh WilliamsAugust 16, 2019It's getting to be a nice airport with new ammendites ! Easier to get in and out of than Phoenix!
Carrera GirlMay 11, 2011I'm in airports an average of 250 times a year and the people here are extremely friendly and pleasant. One of the easiest but also well equipped airport I've ever been in!
Oh, finally I see they've opened a TSA pre-check line at the A gates! This after flying in & out of here every other month & being antagonized by the signs telling me to sign up for Pre-check. WOW!
Love flying in an out here. Security is less than 10 minutes (except for first flights out in AM), free Wi-Fi, and people are friendly. I wish all airports were like this!
As far as small airports go, this is probably one of the best. Clean, amazing staff, and TSA takes hardly no time at all!
Nicole RovigOctober 19, 2017Very small. Security was fast. No dining, only a snack stand. They did have hot breakfast sandwiches pre-made, minus the hot. Nice view of the mountains!
Small airport with pretty quick security. Car rental is easy and quick. Not much to eat or shop in the terminal.- Great little airport, no long lines, friendly staff, great places to eat and shop!
Devin RomeroDecember 30, 2014Small airport, no bragging rights! But it gets you to the bigger places and is close soo! If you can afford the extra 50 bucks to fly out of Tucson instead of Phoenix, do it!
Generally it's very fast to check in without all the hassle of larger airports but that's because there's hardly any airlines left.- Everyone is extremely friendly and you can't beat the free wifi!
This airport is amazing. Yeah, it's small but it's always clean and always a easy security check-in! It makes going home for holidays a lot easier. I'd hate to fly out of Sky Harbor every time.
Ann TanOctober 25, 2013The people here are ridiculously nice. An intercom announcement was made because someone forgot their belt at the TSA gate. Who does that?? I love it here.
Nicole BarrFebruary 28, 2011It's so small that you don't ever have to worry about long waits. It's clean, friendly, has nice gift shops and FREE wi-fi.
Lots of artwork scattered all over airport. Nice touch! Always new stuff on exhibition when I come here. Walk around and check it out if you have some spare time.
Great little airport! (far cry from a hellhole! Leave remarks like that for LAX or LGA!). Never any lines, great staff, and its always super clean! I <3 TIA!
If you rely on TSA Pre-Check, arrive earlier as they often close that line.
Marla MoraApril 10, 2014Pick a spot with comfy seats, an outlet and good wifi signal if you have to wait long hours, there's not much else to do
One of my favorite airports anywhere! So easy and quick to move through!
Kat RyanApril 2, 2012I've used TIA for the better part of 30 years and I have to day, there is something yo be said, about being small, service is awesome & clea
Agreed: love TUS convenience, free WiFi, Southwest panini @ Boar's Head deli and pretty good selection of flights - just need those NYC nonstops back!
SamsoniteMay 3, 2011Head to the Arizona Sports Grill to watch plasma screen TVs ringing the bar with current sports and news while enjoying classic American and pub favorites.- Easy come...easy go! Nice little airport with friendly TSA. Oh... Free wifi while you wait for your flight.
Liz RattrayJuly 6, 2017Lots of construction. Hopefully it's beautiful when it's done. Uber and Lyft pickup area is a far walk from baggage claim.
This is a great little airport! Super clean, friendly and accommodating! Love it!
Prove how much you love the TSA. Go through both security gates twice in the same morning.
Arhonda JohnsonAugust 22, 2014The first airport I didn't have to take my shoes off in. Very clean and very quick- For an international airport TUS is small with just three terminals but security can still get very busy during peak periods.
Now Tucson, too, has the creepy, piped-in voice of its mayor telling you what a great place it is!
