    Recently added a ton of new restaurants. Chipotle opens early in the morning for your burrito cravings

    Awesome airport! Lots of healthy food choices and you can't beat having rocking chairs.

    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!

    if you're early to pick someone up, there's free 1hr parking at the rental car facility. AC, bathrooms and snacks etc inside.

    If 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.

    New secret security line between B and C. Literally no line while the A and B lines stretched beyond the ropes in area. And no TSA or airport folks telling anyone about the secret. Now you know.

    Still the best airport in the DC-Baltimore area, but baggage claim and pick up traffic issues need to be addressed.

    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.

    Precheck is available here! Get Global Entry and speed through security for domestic flights (and speed through customs and immigration at qualifying airports when coming back to the US)!

    If you arrive Ian the evening and having a family member pick you, have them pick you up on the departure level. Much quicker.

    Get drunk at Rams Head and make up a story to the bartender about your gf leaving and you traveling the world looking for exotic spices. This is how I know its you...

    I think that's the most convenient airport of the DC area, it has Southwest (cheap flight) and good transportation, and it's not too much of a headache to get in and out.

    If you need to fill up the rental car gas tank better do it before you take the airport exit. There is none to be found anywhere near the car rental facility.

    If you are leaving someone at the airport, there are no places to eat, just a Starbucks and a Dunkin dunuts. But if you are traveling, there are more places to eat passing security.

    Everything you've heard about the TSA security line being bad? It's worse—and likely starts down the hallway long before you even reach the corded lines.

    There are fresh cut flowers in the ladies room and a wine bar right next to my gate. What more could you ask for? Mani and massage. Done.

    Silver Diner is the best breakfast stop at BWI by far. It's right near the entrance to the B gates.

    If you're flying Southwest, stop at the diner in the main food court for a milkshake. They are the best!

    Always something here. On a ground hold and it's 90 and sunny here and where we're headed. Maybe I should try and find a crab cake! Lol

    You can go through any security checkpoint to grab dinner as long as you have a boarding pass for that day. It doesn't matter what airline you're flying.

    There can be ridiculously long lines for security so I recommend arriving at least and hour and a half to two hours early

    If you need a cart, before you pay, go outside near the baggage claim area and look for an abandoned one for free. It could be your lucky day~

    Please watch your speed on your way to the airport. Cops don't care even if you're already running late to catch your flight.

    Keeping 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!

    If you park across the airport make sure go to level 6 that will take you directly to the skywalk path.

    Clean, efficient airport, but one of the few that doesn't bother to put up privacy dividers in the urinal.

    Flying out of the D concourse? For $20 you can go into the Airspace lounge (free for some Amex customers) and charge up, eat, hop on their free wifi etc.

    Just FYI, there are more than one TSA screen entry points. Everyone always goes to the one closest to the check in kiosks

    If you're an evening arrival, have your people pick you up upstairs at departures; Few are there that late and no one is hassling you to move your car and it's much easier to spot your pick up.

    Pro tip: there's an Au Bon Pain across from terminal a7 and a9. Best place to eat at BWI, hands down.

    Apparently there is a kids play area between the D & E, but you can't access it from any other areas without leaving through security. 😠

    Make sure to have your phone charged, they don't have charging stations in each chair like in other airports.

    Security Gate C is the fastest and it connects to Terminals A and B as well.
