Plan to arrive at BTV two hours before your flight. Remember that you may need to find a parking place, carry luggage into the terminal, check in, and pass through security. And keep in mind that flights usually board at least 30 minutes prior to scheduled departure time. Once the aircraft doors are closed, they will not be reopened for late arrivals.

BTV’s new parking garage additions make “Garage Full” conditions rare, but they do occasionally occur. Be sure to call ahead to the parking garage at 802-865-7572 for up-to-the-minute parking conditions status. Alternate parking is available the Airports' overflow parking at Park & Shuttle, adjacent to the main terminal.

Please check the TSA’s web site at www.tsa.gov for a list of items banned from checked bags or carry-ons. DO keep your prescription drugs, jewelry and other valuables with you. If you store toiletries and other small items inside plastic bags, it will help prevent spillage, breakage or loss in case your bag is searched.

For summer travelers, please clean your sporting equipment, such as golf clubs, before traveling, since any residue can set off detectors. Keep film in carry-on bags and remove laptops from their cases. Remove any metal from your pockets and place in your carry-on to avoid being detained and holding up the line.
