Local Tips

  • The yellow striped pavement is the giveaway — follow it and you'll land in the right pickup zone without hunting for signs.
  • GEG has two concourses but operates as one integrated terminal, so you can walk between all gates without re-clearing security.
  • The rental car facility is across the street via a covered skybridge — no shuttle, which is welcome in a Spokane winter.
  • Construction is ongoing: inbound lanes are reduced and the closest short-term lot to the A/B side is closed. Add buffer time, especially for departures.
  • For the regional ski areas — Schweitzer, Mt. Spokane, Silver Mountain — a rental car is usually the practical choice; resort shuttles run seasonally.

Tarmyq local tip

Just follow the yellow pavement. It's the simplest wayfinding of any airport in this wave, and it leads straight to the rideshare zone — while taxis wait in the lane directly opposite the baggage claim doors.
