๐Ÿข Terminal Guide & Navigation

Tri-Cities Airport (PSC) is a primary aviation hub serving southeastern Washington and northeastern Oregon, located in Pasco approximately 2 miles from the city center. The airport operates from a single, modern passenger terminal that underwent a major $42 million expansion completed in 2017, designed for high efficiency and intuitive navigation. It acts as a critical infrastructure link, connecting the region to major national hubs like Seattle, Denver, and Salt Lake City via carriers such as Alaska Airlines, Delta, and United.

The terminal infrastructure provides a variety of contemporary amenities across its unified layout, featuring the 'Grand Rendezvous Cafรฉ' pre-security and full-service airside dining at 'Columbia Bar & Grill' and 'Jump Off Joe.' A unique feature of the facility is the 'PSC Pass' program, which allows non-travelers to apply for terminal access to meet or see off passengers directly at the gate. Travelers have access to free high-speed Wi-Fi, modernized security screening points, and retail kiosks selling local Washington souvenirs and travel essentials, ensuring a professional environment for all visitors.

Ground transportation at PSC is well-supported by on-site car rental desks for several major national agencies, with a new dedicated rental facility under development to further streamline operations. Official taxi ranks and ride-sharing services are readily available curbside, and the airport is located just 2 miles from the Pasco Amtrak station, providing convenient multi-modal transit links. The facility offers exceptionally easy-to-access parking lots situated directly in front of the terminal, providing a streamlined experience for those transitioning to the region's agricultural and technology sectors.

๐Ÿ’ก Connection Tips

Tri-Cities Airport (PSC) is the primary gateway to southeastern Washington and the cities of Pasco, Kennewick, and Richland. Ground transport is well-supported; 'Ben Franklin Transit' Line 68 provides a direct public transit link between the terminal and the Pasco Transit Center every hour. Taxis and rideshare services like Uber and Lyft have designated pickup areas outside arrivals.

Major car rental agencies (Hertz, Avis, Enterprise) have desks on-site, which is the highly recommended way to explore the regional wine country and the Hanford site. A unique connection tip: the Pasco Amtrak station is located just 10 minutes away by taxi, providing rail links to Portland and Chicago.

Tri-Cities is the Columbia Basins principal commercial gateway, so rental cars and hotel shuttles are the normal way out while the regions freeway network does the heavy lifting. The airports value is not just the terminal itself but the fact that Pasco, Kennewick, and Richland can all be reached quickly once the vehicle is already arranged. A rental car or hotel shuttle should already be arranged, because the Columbia Basin is the part that needs the vehicle for Pasco, Kennewick, Richland, and the wine country, not for waiting at the curb there first too.
