Muhammad Ali International Airport (SDF) is expecting a record spring break weekend. More than 36,500 departures are planned from Thursday March 28 to Sunday March 31, an increase of more than 13% compared to last year.
SDF is generally easy to navigate, but with large crowds expected, here are some pro tips for travelers who want to start their trip off on the right foot:
- Arrive two and a half hours before your scheduled departure time and expect longer than usual lines, especially for departures before 8:30 a.m.
- Know where you are going park and remember that lots may close as they fill up.
- Check in in advance on your airline's website or app and keep an eye on your flight status.
- Pack smartly — electronic devices larger than a cell phone will need to be removed at security, and liquids are limited to 3 ounces. containers.
