If your New Year’s resolution is to travel more then we’re here to help make your time at San Antonio International Airport (SAT) as smooth as possible.
We’ve created a guide that covers everything from gates and parking, to details on the airport’s dozens of nonstop flights.
What to know
TSA | The SAT airport’s website recommends arriving two hours prior for flights at or before 7:30 a.m., and about 90 minutes before for flights after 7:30 a.m.
Food and drink | SAT really shines when it comes to its vast array of local food options. Case in point: Get some authentically-San Antonio tacos from La Gloria before washing it down with a cup of Joe from Merit Coffee.
Reminder | By May 7, 2025, all travelers over the age of 18 will need a REAL ID to board commercial flights in the US.
Flight status | While we recommend staying updated via your respective airline, you can also check the airport’s dashboard for your flight status in a pinch.
