Drink

All you need to know about SAT Airport
Here’s your guide for SAT — plane and simple. | Photo by SATXtoday team
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.
A reading journal. Use it to write notes about the books you’re reading — like quotes that catch your eye, pages you want to come back to, and your overall rating. Pro tip: Use multicolor pens to make filling out your journal even more fun.
The Fiesta gears are already turning here at SATXtoday. I’ve been thinking about an article like “How to avoid the Fiesta chaos,” for those who don’t participate in the festivities. If there’s an aspect of Fiesta that you’d like to learn more about — or prefer to avoid it all together — let me know. I love hearing from y’all.
