South Bend International Airport

It's a tiny airport, everyone is super nice, there's 2 TSA lines for one lane of scanners. There are 2 restaurants, one in the secure area and the other outside of security. It's been a long time since I've been in an international airport this small. I like it though, no lines to get through security, you can sit at your gate and not feel like a sardine. The only downside is I've not found a direct flight and all flights that I've seen have been commuter jets so the delays coming in have been pretty regular and if the flight isn't packed then that is also pretty comfortable.

Lots of activities here despite ongoing expansion construction. Arrivals crowd cluster around the bagging carousel. The regular shopping option around the gate are still active. Still one of the area's best gateway to the rest of the world.

It was very easy to find the gate# and a very nice airpot. Had some great onion rings at the bar fly before our flight! All the employees I met were so nice and helpful throughout the airpot.
