Have your ride pick you up upstairs on the departures level. It always is less crowded.
April Holifield-ScottSeptember 26, 2014The Super Shuttle is cheap and fast. Tip: ask for the front seat of you don't want to melt.
DoubleTree by Hilton ManagerSeptember 22, 2011Keeping liquids in checked baggage is always your best bet, but if you aren’t checking luggage, predetermine how much liquid security allows and plan ahead to avoid losing your favorite shampoo!
Gina MartinAugust 3, 2013If you are departing from A gates, you can save time in line by going through security in B&C area. Walk through B&C to get to A.
Monica HatleyJuly 27, 2013Watch the african american TSA guy with the highlighter. He gets mad when you don't go through the line properly when the line is short.
Still the best airport in the DC-Baltimore area, but baggage claim and pick up traffic issues need to be addressed.
If you're a United flier, there's no club at this airport. Tough to find outlets and work space so grab one if you see it!
You can get from the light rail to your gate in less than an hour if you're quick on an early morning.
Stop brookstone in concourse d. Cool stuff ask for mike and ask about cool iphone projector and ipad accesories cool stuff. Ask for big mike
The best place to eat is at The Burger Joint which has a wonderful tuna burger
Your best bet from the airport is a cab for about $20 or hop on the Light Rail to Penn Station. Light rail trains leave every 30 minutes on Saturdays
Monique WDecember 2, 2013If you have a late flight, eat before you get here or plan to starve... Or survive on chips, peanuts and other overpriced goods. :)
Best kept secret @ BWI? Concourse A TSA screen on the lower level near bag claim. Zero, I mean ZERO line. Incredible.
Cherie PetersJanuary 3, 2015Manchu Wok offers good fried rice - D terminal. Loved the Fresh flowers and cleanliness In restrooms
If you're flying Southwest, stop at the diner in the main food court for a milkshake. They are the best!
Raquel ImesMarch 8, 2013The airport info was surprisingly extremely quick and helpful when I left my bag on the parking shuttle =/ but I got it back within about 20 mins!!
Don't be dismayed by the size of the security line to D Terminal; it may look a mile long, but it goes surprisingly fast! Only took me 20 minutes.
There can be ridiculously long lines for security so I recommend arriving at least and hour and a half to two hours early
Tee LeeApril 2, 2013Go by Baltimore's Famous Obrycki's in the airport and try there crab cakes... You will love them... $30 but good
Larry BierschankSeptember 11, 2014This is a very clean airport and check out all the shops and food above gates 3 and 4
The airport is nice enough, but rental cars are offsite and renters are required to ride (at least sometimes) an extremely overcrowded shuttle bus to the rental facility.
If you arrive Ian the evening and having a family member pick you, have them pick you up on the departure level. Much quicker.
Pack efficiently! Make your laptop, toiletries, and shoes easy to remove so security keeps moving. Your fellow travelers will thank you!
Aytac D.March 6, 2015Rent a car station is like 10 mins drive from the arrival, each company has separate shuttles for themselves
Jeffrey StanleyDecember 19, 2014Not a bad airport. Modern, clean, and finding baggage claim and car rental is extremely convenient. I'd rather fly into this airport if you are heading to Washington DC/Baltimore region. 😀😀😀
Silver Diner is the best breakfast stop at BWI by far. It's right near the entrance to the B gates.
David MathesonApril 12, 2013If heading to Washington DC, follow signs for Ground Transportation then signs for the B30 bus. It takes you to Greenbelt subway station for $6.
Lee N Lori HendersonJuly 31, 2013If you fly Spirit....kniw that you pay for EVERYTHING even the drinks and snacks!
JoanmarieOctober 6, 2012If you're unfamiliar with the area, use Super Shuttle. Way cheaper than a cab, and they drop you off at the door of your destination. Downstairs by door 9.
One of the easiest airports to fly in and out of. Security moves ok but if you go to the security line down a level near baggage claim there is hardly ever a wait. And they now have a Chipotle!
Taylor PashkoffMarch 24, 2013If you're flying southwest, the terminal is great! The diner there is the best. You'll never be bored!
Cassie SchanbergerMarch 9, 2019For my 1st time here getting in to the departure section was pretty smooth and simple.
Head to the Silver Diner and pick up a panini and a shake, you'll have them to you quick before your flight.
Try the C TSA line if you're set to leave out of A, B, or C. You may be able to get through quicker.
A very nice employee let us know there is a second security line downstairs. We were happy we took his advice because there were 0 people.
CODi Inc.August 4, 2011This airport is only 1.5 hours from our headquarters in Harrisburg, PA and is great alternative when you can't find a suitable flight at HIA or are traveling to other Central PA locations.
In case of emergency... "Eat bottom cushion for flotation", your friends at AirTran
Amy AnselmoJuly 5, 2011Cleanest airport bathrooms I've ever seen. Fresh flowers in there too! Easy trip from DC in the Marc train and much cheaper fares than Reagan.- Alfred Lewers JrSeptember 9, 2012Southwest is great. We got here 14 minutes early. The pilot said "The next time we're late, we'll call it even."
Greg NicholsonFebruary 1, 2016Sign up for Clear if you fly out of here regularly. Worth the ~$130/year.
RaeMarch 19, 2013Awesome airport! Lots of healthy food choices and you can't beat having rocking chairs.
When coming to BWI be prepared to wait a little while. Plan accordingly!!
RexOctober 25, 2017Definitely consider this airport if you're flying into the DC area. There is only one Priority Pass lounge, which had been closed for a year and reopened under a new name.
Don DiamantOctober 27, 2014Food court is pretty good but you won't find any beer here if you're facing the food court look left its all the way at the end.
Kim Bell-PompeySeptember 3, 2012Very nice airport, lots of food choices and excellent location, right by most gates.
Christopher PotterJune 19, 2013Head to D41/42 for a quiet place to hide out and plug in. Free wifi here or at the Airspace lounge (pw:airspace).
