Fort Lauderdale Flights & Airlines

Just what makes an airport great? Is it the number of airlines that work through it? If that is the case, then the Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport fits the bill.

Twenty-nine major airlines call Fort Lauderdale home, along with eight commuter lines. Is it the number of non-stop destination? Again, Fort Lauderdale fits the bill. There are fifty-four locations from which and to which airlines fly non-stop. In addition, sixteen of those are international. Is it the convenience of location? Fort Lauderdale is located near many popular tourist sites, including the award-winning beaches of the Florida coast, the Everglade National Park, Miami, Orlando, and the Florida Keys. Even sites within the Greater Fort Lauderdale Area are not something to be ignored. This could be the reason more than six million people flow through the Fort Lauderdale Hollywood airport annually.

Is it possible that this airport's facilities are so great that it stands apart from other airports? If it is possible, then this airport definitely meets the description. Guests' experiences begin at the terminal gates. The terminals are split into two levels, keeping the passenger loading operations separate from the passenger unloading operations. As visitors come off the planes, they are routed directly to the baggage claim area. This unique design speeds the flow of people traffic and alleviates much of the stress-inducing situations found at most airports. The signs directing visitors to the various amenities as well as to the different gates are all plainly understandable. Foreign language speakers do not have any trouble at all.

The terminal halls and seating areas are decorated with wonderful works of art, which are both stimulating and entertaining. Airport Ambassadors are trained in the care and handling of people. They are constantly available to serve anyone and everyone, lowering the potential for problems and stress. In the rare event that stress does overcome a person, the airport is equipped with a remote, locked and guarded meditation room, where one can go to be alone for however long it takes to rejuvenate. With all this airport has to offer, it is no wonder that it is considered one of the very best in its class. Six million people cannot be wrong.
