However, I didn't see any problems with the facilities or restaurants there. It's the main terminal for United Airlines as well as JetBlue (and others). We recently flew out of here on our way to their hub in Houston (IAH). The last time was when we flew to Puerto Rico to visit family members prior to 2018. I don't remember seeing the "Copper Birds" there at that time. I've always wondered where they went. I'm glad they found a good place to display them. The view of the runway at Airside A (as well as F) is very nice. The boarding for United was very organized. I think the only negative is that only one of the SkyConnect trams was operational. It's a minor inconvenience. The wait time wasn't too long for the other one to return. The people mover trams will all eventually be replaced anyway, so expect more wait times at all the airsides. It will be a nice upgrade to TPA once that project is completed. As always, it was a smooth trip back to Tampa.

If you have only carry-on luggage you can skip the crowds and infrequent travelers and use this great addition to TPA. When arriving at TPA, you can follow the signs when you exit the tram on floor 3 to get to the Express pick up curb. TPA is now directing all ride share (Uber & Lyft, etc.) pickups to the Blue Express Terminal

So the trains are always full to C and to the main terminal. The C side is great for food and drink, and some unique shops. There are places to fill your water bottles once you are through TSA, which is quick and efficient. The seats have AC plugs for charging, but at times there is no place to sit. The bathrooms are clean. The art is nice. There is a very busy gate area.

I do believe this is Tampa's newest terminal, and it seems exclusively used by Southwest Airlines…read more I see reviews from 2017, so maybe that's why half the bathrooms, there are two, were closed? There are some good dining options here. You can find my review at the Cafe Con Leche Yelp! page. I was surprised that there is even an outdoor smoking area!
