Astrid CNovember 26, 2011the new body scanner makes security a little longer process than before, prepare- Jim LehnhoffOctober 7, 2010The garlic and cheddar biscuits at Ruby Tuesdays are delicious. Surprisingly so.
Don't get lost at their one concourse and 12 gates! In a hurry? Don't worry, security lines are usually short and quick.

Adam BlountAugust 1, 2013Nice airport! Never crazy busy or stressful, you don't have to pay for luggage carts and it has free WiFi.
Kai TechnolustJune 8, 2014Nice small airport, but could use a few more GIDS. Kept having to leave my seat to see the display.
Pam DDecember 15, 2013Pretty sure the airplane is right behind baggage claim, yet it takes 40 mins to get them going
Billy KidneyJuly 10, 2013Frequent travelers beware there are NO first class or elite status check in lines or security lines. Plan extra time!- Jade HJanuary 30, 2019Robust crowd going thru security this am. Allow at least an hour and a half before your flight departure y’all
- Jade HJanuary 29, 2019Hello again, Knoxvegas. Happy 100th Birthday, 👵! Thanks for the smooth ride, Delta!🛩
Hang out at the Starbucks round table to make friends!
The sodas in the vending machine are half the price you pay at the shops in the terminal.
Between 5-10 minutes are spent at security lane, even in the busiest day of this airport:)
Need a bottle of water or a soda?! Find the vending machines behind the TVs! Drinks are only $1.50!
Emily N.December 27, 2014Tiny airport. No food before security, so easy with loved ones before they fly outside the airport.
Small airport but free wifi is always a good sign!
