    I fly in and out of here four or five times a year. Always very clean.Staff nice and very helpful. It's a small airport, but has a really nice layout. Easy to find your way around. You also have good options for food & shopping. Love that you can actually watch the plans land and go without having to purchase a ticket. Wonderful place to get the kids imagination going. Security is easy and pretty fast. You have all the major car rental companies and the city bus. I've used all the transportation options from the car rental to uber and always been smooth sailing which ever I choose. Been good mask compliance!

    Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) is a major county-owned airport in the South Fort Myers area. The airport serves the Southwest Florida region, including the Cape Coral Fort Myers, Naples-Marco Island and Punta Gorda metropolitan areas. It currently is the second-busiest single-runway airport in the United States. This airport can be classified as a mid size airport.....not to small and not too big either. It would be recommended to here at the TSA check-in atleast an hour before your flight and you should be fine even if they are super busy. All the terminals are within one huge contiguous building. So you can walk from one end to the other not worrying about getting on shuttles. The airport is maintained very well and clean. It has a 3 level parking deck for short term parking right across the airport as well.

    As far as airports go this is definitely one of the better ones. It’s generally well organized, kept very clean, and is easy to access. I have almost never had an issue at this airport except in the most extreme situations. Even when long security lines form they tend to process them pretty quickly. The area prior to going through security is extremely spacious which helps on busy days. There are also a few good food/drink options here such as Starbucks. This airport mainly loses a star because it/the terminal is really small and the options for food/shops are not great. Honestly some of the worst I’ve seen at any airport. Lots of seating though and charging areas which is always appreciated. Also lots of bathrooms which I think is essential in any airport. This is an international airport but it doesn’t feel that way. It’s not as bustling as somewhere like JFK but it does its job just right 👌

    This is a great clean airport. It's very efficient to travel through here. All the regular services were up and running on our recent trip despite hurricane in the area. Always a good destination for vacation!

    I really like this airport, a very efficient design with rental cars right across the street. Navigating the airport was straight forward and there is plenty of room capable of accommodating the inrush of large groups as planes ✈️ come and go.

    We love this airport! It is very clean and we always get right through the check-in process and get to our gate with no issues. Everyone wears a mask and stays social distanced as much as possible. It is a beautiful airport. The drop-off area for departures is easy to use as well as the pick-up area for arrivals. I highly recommend RSW Airport!

    Such a great airport, especially because of its size ( not large like Tampa). Easy in and out & convenient access to rental cars & drop off. They kept announcing that masks are required under Federal Law, however there is no federal law enacted regarding masks, a mandate is Not a Law, so that really needs to be corrected to avoid potential lawsuits. Otherwise, it's one of the best airports with the most courteous employees!

    Only reason I ever fly out of Fort Lauderdale or Miami is because there are no flights to the Caribbean here. Excellent for other places

    It's an airport terminal, took some pics to give you an idea of what they offer while you wait for your flight.

    Nice airport a bit better than Tampa. This airport is a decent size and it’s run very well. It has plenty of seating, clean gates and walkways, and has some nice little shops with great signage. The staff from every gate is nice and friendly and TSA is great and runs great. Each airline owns a few gates which is easy to locate your gate for your flight. Will definitely keep flying here whenever I visit Florida!

    My family actually loves this airport! We are from Naples so it’s convenient as it is Close to I75. The TSA process is usually fast and they are some of the nicest TSA employees I have ever interacted with which makes the process so much smoother. I admire them for the work that they do they do not have easy jobs. In the event that we have a super early flight at times, we may want to stay at the airport the previous evening, and if that is the case, there’s also lots of nearby hotels & restaurants. Restaurants vary in price so you can eat at you. One dollar restaurant all the way to a five dollar restaurant. Fort Myers is a nice area and the airport is not that far from the beach. It is a very clean Airport and we always get right through the check-in process and get to our gate with no issues. You no longer need to wear or stay socially distanced but at my most recent visit to the airport I did see several passengers wearing mask. The drop-off area for departures is easy to use as well as the pick-up area for arrivals. The cell phone lot is highly lighted before family members who are waiting for their loved ones to arrive from a flight. I highly recommend RSW Airport! Nice airport.

    Southwest Florida International Airport is located in Ft. Myers serving the Ft. Myers and surrounding area. It’s modern, clean with a decent amount of restaurants and shops. On the weekends the TSA security lines can be long so plan accordingly. I always enjoy coming here!

    Really small airport. Not a lot of dining options. The bagel spot in terminal D is pretty good. Wouldn't suggest spending a lot of time here. TSA is normally pretty easy.

    Small, worry and hassle free airport I've been. Clean and no lines and wait. No traffic going in or out the area. I wish our airports in NY/NJ were like this.

    I've stopped using this airline, the flight was the only non-stop I could find. The Wi-Fi did not work on the first flight and the plane could use an up-date. The return plane was in better condition. My Wi-Fi was working but the person next to me hers was always getting service interrupted. We were crammed in like sardines in the "Business Select" which was only good for getting a front-row seat and one (1) free drink. I'm not sure if I'll fly again with SW.

    Southwest Florida International Airport is convenient and clean. Before moving to Southwest Florida, this was my airport of choice even if it meant driving further. The jetBlue terminal has at least two restaurants that serve a wide variety of food and there is also a convenience mart. Upon my last visit, the security personnel were all very friendly. If you're visiting Southwest Florida for vacation or returning as a "snowbird", I highly recommend using this airport for both your departures and arrivals, which will surely say, "Welcome home".

    The City of Palms is located in Southwestern Florida on the banks of the Caloosahatchee River. Most visitors go to Fort Myers for the deep-sea fishing, the golf courses and the famous white sand beaches and islands that line the Gulf Coast. A renovation of the city's downtown waterfront promises new restaurants, clubs, shops and galleries. Attractions include the winter estates of Henry Ford and Thomas Edison, as well as nearby

    Nice quaint airport and fairly modern. It was helpful for a trip over to Marco island which is about an hour away. There are no lounges and the food options are limited so check the food options before you pass security. People seem to like Shula’s out of the options.

    This airport is extremely easy to use. There is plenty of parking, and the gates are just a short walk from the main entrance and ticketing area. Security was a pleasure. The lines were not too long. The TSA agents were friendly and helpful. There are plenty of places to eat or get last minute souvenirs.

    Southwest Florida International Airport is a relatively easy airport to navigate. It is not too large. The airport is clean and well staffed. The airport offers many shopping and dining options before one goes through security as well as some dining and shopping options beyond security. I have encountered limited parking at the airport as departing passenger. I have also encountered limited short term parking when picking up out of town guests. Overall, RSW is an airport that I would recommend for travel to and from SWFL.

    Flew into this airport on vacation from Philadelphia PA a few weeks ago on October 1st and it couldn’t have gone any better! TSA was quick and easy and the check in process for my luggage was seamless..it was my first time to Florida and my first time flying on an airplane as well it won’t be my last! Thanks!

    Flew with Air Canada at RSW airport and it went as smooth as possible. Staff were friendly and helpful. Airport is spotless and easy to navigate. Easy access to car rentals if required. Uber also quickly available. Baggage claim was quick for checked bag retrieval.

    The southwest of Florida is definitely a place to enjoy family. Beaches, great neighborhoods, restaurants, and nature make the perfect combo. If you have not explored yet , you should!

  • 5/5 Ronald K. 2 years ago on Google
    My favorite airport. So clean and inviting. I know paradise is close when we land here. Love it. The best place to visit hands down. Great little shops at airport while you wait near your gate. Good times. Easy to navigate. I pushed my grandma easily through the whole airport in a wheel chair. All the way from enterprise car rental drop off, to baggage drop, through security and to our gate after hitting the shops of course. Very well laid out and easy to use. Floors are smooth and easy to push the wheel chair. Very pleased with the experience!! Made it easy to travel with my 82 year old grandma from Columbus OH to fort Myers!!!
