Spokane International Airport (GEG)

Spokane International Airport (GEG), also known as Felts Field's larger successor, is the primary aviation hub for the Inland Northwest, serving eastern Washington, northern Idaho, and western Montana. Located approximately 8 kilometers west of downtown Spokane, the airport features two primary runways and is the second-largest airport in Washington state. Its strategic position makes it a critical link for regional commerce and tourism, providing a gateway to the nearby Rocky Mountains and the numerous lakes and outdoor recreation areas of the Pacific Northwest. The terminal infrastructure at GEG is uniquely designed with a single building divided into three distinct concourses: A, B, and C. Concourses A and B are centrally located and linked by a public rotunda that offers a variety of dining and shopping options, while Concourse C is situated to the southwest. Major carriers like Delta, United, and American Airlines primarily operate out of Concourses A and B, whereas Alaska Airlines and Southwest utilize the more modern Concourse C. The facility provides a range of amenities including complimentary Wi-Fi, multiple ATMs, and dedicated business and family services, all designed to offer a professional and comfortable environment for the nearly 4 million passengers who pass through annually. Ground transportation from Spokane International is well-integrated with the region, offering travelers a variety of options including on-site car rentals, app-based ridesharing through Uber and Lyft, and local taxi services. The Spokane Transit Authority (STA) also operates regular bus route No. 60, providing a reliable and affordable link between the airport terminal and the city center. For those connecting between flights, it is important to note that while Concourses A and B are connected airside, there is no secure connector to Concourse C. Passengers transferring between Concourse A/B and Concourse C must exit the secure area and re-clear security, so allowing at least 90 minutes for domestic connections is highly recommended.
