RNO reached highest passenger numbers since 2008 during the first half of 2023. With a bustling end to the summer in sight, we recommend planning ahead. Arrive at least two hours before your flight – especially if you need to park at the airport, check luggage, return a rental car or require wheelchair assistance.
Top Departure Tips:
- Use the real-time parking availability feature and give yourself more time to park in overflow parking if main lots are full.
- During busy times, the security checkpoint process through TSA may take longer. Check TSA's guidelines for a smooth security process.
- Ticket counters must open at least 90 minutes before departure but many open earlier. Check directly with your airline on hours of operation.
Top Arrival Tips:
- Rental car operations are experiencing longer wait times for reservation pick-ups, and lines at the counters may be affected due to Labor Day and Burning Man. Please check your reservation before arriving to RNO.
- Need a rideshare like Uber or Lyft? Pick-up is located just outside of baggage claim Door D near the hotel shuttles and taxis.
- Tell family and friends to use the Free Waiting Lot before picking up along the curb.
