"Fudge isn't a liquid!" I exclaimed."Anything that can be spread, poured or sprayed," she said, pouring out the contents of my backpack, spreading out my underwear and spraying socks on the table.Upvoted 2 weeks ago
Joe WinnNovember 8, 2014Free wifi with no hassle to connect. Small-town airport. Easy to get anywhere or right out to your ride.Upvoted Feb 15- ed petersonOctober 10, 2017Great small airport! Car rental was a little slow, but great facilities and easy in and out.Upvoted Feb 18
Alexa Jane BrooksMarch 18, 2015Great location! Cheaper flights. Clean and next to no traffic. Pretty architecture too. Only 15 minutes from whole foods.
Eileen BJanuary 6, 2013Plenty of outlets and USB ones too. No need to dig for adapters!! Best Buy vending machine available across from gate 9 if you forgot your cables!
Using TSA Pre, I can easily get from the front door to my gate in 15 minutes on a normal day. That's with checking a bag. 10 total gates, a Starbucks, and a few restaurants.
Mike McLaughlinNovember 15, 2011Free wifi and convenient places for charging things! Not to mention Starbucks at gate 7 and cool architecture. One of my favorite "jetports"
small, easy to navigate. Some nice touches that make it uniquely Maine. Like those Beans rockers. You can even spot a moose or too.
The people here are absolutely wonderful. As a frequenter flier they always greet me and start my travel day off right. Also- the asiago breakfast sandwiches at the breakfast kiosk are amazing- if no Read more
Kyle HinrichsJuly 9, 2014Bring an empty water bottle! You can fill it up by the fountains and bathroom by Linda Bean's.
With TSA precheck you’ll never have to wait more than 10 minutes in line. Hit the Starbucks, and watch the planes come in a rocking chair!
James UnderbergJuly 25, 2015Love the Delta flights - move through quickly - nothing fancy here but everyone nice - place runs well !!!
Elliott BellJuly 16, 2012Gate 8 is great. Just make sure you get there early so you can see the planes take off from the large windows
Sara GraceAugust 18, 2012Nice jet port. Rocking chairs & wood beam ceiling add a classic Maine touch. Decent food & free wifi is always a plus.
Michael Del CampSeptember 21, 2011You have to get here first, right? Trains, buses and cars can bring you to Portland, too. You can rent a bike once you get here.
Small airport. Very easy to maneuver. Lots of power stations.- My favorite part is when I'm getting off a flight, walking up the ramp into the airport and I see the "Welcome home" sign. I smile every time.
Bring your empty reusable bottle and fill it at the water station. So much better than a water fountain!
Welcome to Maine! Our interests include hunting, gay marriage, complaining about the weather, and Allen's Coffee Brandy.. Enjoy your stay!
Casandra CharbonneauxDecember 24, 2010Disregard the whole come 2 hrs early for international flights thing here, security is so fast you'll be sitting around forever if you don't. Also keep the liguids in tiny bottles or they'll get tossd
Kate WilmotJune 7, 2011Comfortable seating for when Newark is rigid and delays flights for two hours and your sat waiting to pick someone up. Friendly staff, great internet.
Great clean airport! For extended stays use Park'n Jet instead of airport parking. They are cheaper per day!
Sabrina Shrader McOwenMarch 9, 2012BJ at the United ticket desk is super nice. If stuff gets screwed up, she'll go above & beyond to try to fix it.
Rarely lines at security. Food options are weak, but the rocking chairs make up for it.
Rarely a line to checkin but the security line can be a bit long depending on the time of day but moves fast
Don't let it's size fool you. They will still lose a bag or two every once in a while. Front door delivery though.- Portland International JetportApril 19, 2012Be sure to check-in for our most recent special! Free Soft Drink and Clam Chowder Sample from Linda Bean's Cafe (near Gate #10)!
Skip the Shipyard pub and grab a beer at Linda Bean's. They have Goose Island IPA on tap.
Jonathan PercyMay 29, 2012Security is pretty tight here which isn't surprising for a smaller airport. Overall, great, calm airport. Oh, and free wifi.
All these tips about waiting until last minute to catch your flight should be ignored. Always always always get to the airport at least an hour before your flight!!
Starbucks inside! Great food options. Water bottle refill station.
Bill TurnerSeptember 21, 2011Most of us think of an airport as a quick "pass thru" location: reality is we business people spend considerable time there; plan to use airport resources such as WiFi, restaurants, coffee, retail,
If you're packing a garmin, especially in a sandbagged case, take it out of your suitcase-- a lot quicker than what I just went thru!- My favorite part, besides the free fabulous wifi, is when I get off a flight and am walking up the ramp and see the sign "welcome home". Always makes me smile.
Andrew CSeptember 23, 2016Small airports are so much better - quicker service and less crowds allows limited stress!!!
Do not leave your vehicle unattended in the Baggage Claim Lot or on the curbside, you will get a $25 ticket and have your vehicle towed. Thank you.
Mike ShawNovember 3, 2011Awesome example of a small functional jet port. For a good salad try the brew company.
There is a line at security from 10:30 until 11:15 am. That's the only line time outside of the early am rush (4:50-6 am)
Sara LAugust 22, 2012There were tons of outlets right at your seat. Also, rocking chairs by the window were a good touch!- Derek JonesSeptember 4, 2014Small airport with free wifi. Travels to most hubs on the east coast and Orlando.
Becca HaywardMay 10, 2012Beautiful building... a little confusing if you don't fly much. Nice staff so far tho.
Christine WeiMay 18, 201510 mins from curb to gate at 5:08am Monday with precheck (and mobile boarding pass).
The mens and womens bathrooms are side by side. Know which one you are going into. ;-)
Denise Faulkner ScalesDecember 22, 2012Get there in at least 1.5 hours early! All new way to get thru and easier!

"Ordered the size huge lobster roll, clam chowder, and kettle chip combo. My husband and I wanted to split and they graciously served two portions on two separate plates. It was amazingly good food!"
