    Review for new airport: cannot even compare to the old one! SO NICE! Two local coffee shops, Dunkin, a ton of local restaurants, shops, plenty of seating with chargers. Cannot say enough good things!

    Wow. This airport is now awesome. Normally I would have avoided MCI at all costs, now there’s loads to do here and great local vendors.

    On February 28, 2023, the new single-terminal Kansas City International Airport opened to travelers. A new era for Kansas City!

    Unlike most airports which feel almost like cities, once you go through security at KCI it feels more like an abandoned shopping mall

    MCI is one of the few airport in the nation to not use TSA agents and uses private security. Following TSA guidelines, say hello to FirstLine Aviation Security

    Looking for coffee without a wait? Skip the lines. There’s a small self-serve drip coffee kiosk behind Parisi’s Coffee (Parisi PRONTO).

    Easiest airport to fly in or out of. There isn't much food once you go through security. I only fly Southwest in terminal B and there is a Quiznos and Starbucks once you are through security.

    Be sure to not leave Kansas City without visiting Jack Stack. Get Fiorella's Jack Stack Barbecue KC All Purpose Rub.

    Read how to use Clear for the first time. They won’t help you if you ask. Finish enrolling before going through security.

    Security lines are short here: do yourself a favor & eat outside your gate area to save money.

    If you want to get to another city without driving to it, come here and get on an airplane.

    Eat before coming to the airport! And of you didn't, then eat what there is before going through security. At least this goes for the terminal where one finds American Airlines...

    Don't land here and say "I'm in Kansas!" You're actually in Missouri.

    I already mentioned this to the developers, at least twice before the reopening. However, signage is very much needed both inside the terminal and outside also.

    Heading to @NeurIPSConf, #NeurIPS2023 in #NOLA. @BuildKCI looks impressive! Finally, a nice, modern-looking place to @Fly_KansasCity.

    Come to the tips to hear people cry about food. The airport is designed to get you in and out, not for you to stuff your fat face with fast food.

    This is the worst airport in world. Bring your food in from another city because there is nothing here!

    Nope, there isn't much to do and it feels very small...but that's why you get off your plane and are 100 feet from ground transport - easiest airport around.

    Eat before you go through security because there is nothing on the other side.
