Rental car pickup and return are especially easy, making the arrival and departure process much less stressful. TSA can look pretty backed up because there isn't much room for the lines, but in our experience, it usually moves faster than it appears. The TSA agents have also been consistently friendly, which is a nice contrast to some larger airports. My biggest complaint is the food selection. There used to be a Quiznos, but now the options are more limited, with a gastropub, a juice bar, and a coffee shop. I'd personally rather have a simple fast-food option, especially when looking for something less sugary. There also isn't much seating near the gates, so when flights are busy, you may end up standing until boarding starts.

Rental cars are conveniently located at the end of the corridor, and you can walk from the terminal to your car in just a couple of minutes. Drop-off is even easier. I can not tell you how much i appreciate this as someone who missed flights twice in my life and both were due to long rental car drop off processes. The whole airport follows a simple, straightforward flow--you basically move from one checkpoint to the next without much confusion. There is TSA PreCheck, although the process feels a little old-school. Instead of a clearly separated experience throughout, they hand you the classic blue card while you're in the TSA line to indicate PreCheck. Once through security, there's a small, circular food court with a few options, including coffee and a juice spot. From there, the airport continues with the same wonderfully simple layout, branching into two hallways for the A and B gates. Nothing fancy or overwhelming here--and that's exactly why I like it. Small, convenient, easy rental-car access, and you can get from one end to the other without wasting time. One of those airports that makes traveling just a little less stressful.

Spokane International Airport is a small airport so there are usually not too many travelers on any given day. As a result the TSA lines are shorter and move quicker than the big boy airports.

I submit it is Spokane and these particular people who have "a problem" considering I have traveled hundreds of times with this ID with no problems and the gal in the adjacent kiosk had no problems. This tsa agent felt it necessary to continue to be obnoxious to us and others as we all tried to traverse a very unprofessional, inefficient and somewhat incompetent security situation. I travel quite a bit and am deeply appreciative of the necessary hard work tsa agents perform. Spokane can and needs to do better!

Wow!!! That's the…read moreonly word I have for their process. When I went through screening, EVERY passenger was selected for additional screening...regardless of TSA Pre-Check or not. I take a number of meds that my life is dependent on and I never let them out of my positive control. At EVERY OTHER AIRPORT I've passed through, that isn't an issue. It's a very small pillbox and there is no Ferris metal on it at all. At this checkpoint, they refused to let me maintain control of it and took it away from me to screen. As such, I have no idea if they opened it and compromised the medication...because I wasn't allowed to stay with it while they screened it. I didn't make a fuss about it because I'm certain if I do I risk losing pre-check. What was really odd was the little blue laminated card they told me to hold on to throughout the process. When the agent checking my ID handed it to me, he said, "Hang on to this as it's your Golden Ticket to get out of extra screening." As soon as I walked through the magnetometer, the agent on the back side took it from me and told me I was randomly selected for extra screening. In other words, there is zero point to the cards, so I'm wondering why they use them. What also struck me was the fact that they appear to be running an excessive force and are staffing with way too many staff. I liken it to a small town police department with too many officers. They don't have enough legitimate work so they spend their time excessively hassling travelers. Lastly, and I find this funny. As I was walking up the ramp toward the screening area, I remarked to myself that it was going to be a quick process because there wasn't too long of a line. Boy was I wrong. When I flew out of San Jose (SJC), I went through screening in about three minutes. That's a busy airport and the pre-check line was 40 people deep before the agent checked my ID. Here, with no line at all, it took more than 10 minutes. I imagine an efficiency expert would lose their minds if they evaluated the process here. So...be prepared for a LOT of additional screening beyond what other airports do and be prepared for it to take at least three times longer than other small airports.

As far as TSA checkpoints go, this one is... Not great. Not the worst I've seen by a long shot. But…read morenot the best either. First and foremost, the layout is super weird. It gets crowded and backed up quickly. Also TSA Pre-check and the normal screening line terminate at the same group of agents, and then you go through the same checkpoint. The line sometimes backs up so far they run out of que space and then trail out into the lobby. For me personally, I have literally been stopped for additional screening every single time I've gone through this checkpoint. Every single time. So yeah, it's not the best.

This hotel house to be nice and clean, it is now ran down and disgusting. It is independently owned and it shows. We did not feel safe during our stay, after settling in to our room we were alerted by a woman beating on another rooms door yelling profanity for about 10 minutes. I tried calling the front desk and security but could not get anyone to answer. By the time we got someone the lady was either in the room or left. The snack bar is all Costco items that are marked up ridiculously, the water I posted cost $3.50. They have you trapped & they know it. I honestly would have been better ordering water via Uber eats or DoorDash. It was late, we were tired and just wanted something to drink. The clerk even said well at the airport this would have costed you $6, well at the airport it would have been Smart Water and 1 liter. I posted photos but they don't really show all of the grim and lack of upkeep.

[Counter]: The rental car counters at Spokane International Airport (GEG) are all located within a 5 to 10 minute walk from all concourses. There is no need to take shuttles or trams. [Rate]: Approximately $90 for a one-day rental of a midsize car. [Checking-in]: I accidentally waited in the wrong line and ended up having a staff member from National assist with my Alamo check-in. National and Alamo are owned by the same parent company (Enterprise Holdings). I had already checked in ahead of time via email, but I still needed to sign the rental agreement at the counter. [Pick-up]: To my surprise, I picked up a brand-new Nissan Sentra with only 8 miles on the odometer. Unfortunately, I was a little confused because there was no exit booth for checkout and I actually circled back to the pickup area & double-checked with a staff member. Unlike other rental car centers at larger airports, once car key is secured at the rental car counter then just simply drive out. [Drop-off]: Easy drop-off, but I had to flag down a staff member as there was only one person handling the return process for all returned vehicles. [Conclusion]: Overall the service was friendly and efficient, but it would be even better if (1) there were one more staff member supporting the pick-up and drop-off processes and (2) staff provided clearer airport exit instructions to avoid second guessing.
