Fly Easy With Curbside Passenger Pickup and Dropoff

Experience hassle-free travel at Pensacola International Airport (PNS) with our convenient curbside passenger pickup and dropoff service. As the travel season continues to sizzle, we’re committed to keeping things moving smoothly for arriving and departing passengers. Here’s how you can help us in our efforts.

When picking up or dropping off passengers, make use of both the inside and outside lanes for efficient loading and unloading. If you can see the passengers you’re picking up or dropping off, pull over to the right or left-hand curb, greet them warmly, and lend a hand with their luggage. However, please avoid parking and waiting for passengers who have not yet exited the airport, as this can cause unnecessary congestion.

To minimize traffic congestion, it’s essential to keep the middle lane clear for through traffic. However, always remember to stop at the marked crosswalks for pedestrians’ safety. We prioritize the smooth flow of vehicles while ensuring the well-being of everyone at the airport.

In case you anticipate a longer wait, take advantage of our complimentary parking service. You can park for up to an hour in any of our designated parking areas, free of charge. So, if flights are delayed or baggage takes longer than expected, you can comfortably wait until your party is ready for pickup. Once they exit the terminal, drive up to the curbside and reunite without any hassle.

Our goal is to make your journey through PNS as effortless as possible. Although we can’t control external factors like weather, airlines, or TSA procedures, we strive to provide a seamless experience for our passengers. We appreciate your decision to choose Pensacola International Airport as your travel hub, and we look forward to serving you with excellence.

Remember these tips and enjoy a stress-free travel experience. Pensacola International Airport is committed to making your journey convenient and comfortable.

Special Screening: April Improvements at PNS

PNS have been renovating our escalators to improve reliability and energy efficiency. We are pleased to announce that the renovations for the “down” escalator from the concourse have been completed, and it is now in service. The replacement of the “up” escalator is scheduled to begin later this summer and is expected to be completed by Thanksgiving.

The escalator improvements, costing approximately $1 million, have been two years in the planning. We want to remind our passengers that escalator shutdowns are often caused by trips or falls, which require inspections and maintenance. Therefore, we encourage everyone to hold onto the rail and watch their step, not their phone, when getting on or off the escalator. For passengers with multiple bags or children who require supervision, elevators are available as an alternative option.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue with these improvements, which are aimed at providing a safer and more convenient travel experience for our valued passengers at PNS. Stay tuned for further updates on our Modernization and Expansion plan, and thank you for choosing to Fly Easy with us!
