A portion of Glacier Park International Airport’s ticket lobby is being impacted by construction activities, reducing space for travelers who need to check-in. 

The ticket lobby remains operational, but travelers are encouraged to use airline online check-in services to reduce crowds in the area. It is also recommended that travelers take extra time if they need to use the ticket lobby and arrive at least two hours before departure to avoid long lines and reduce crowds.

Traffic flow at the airport also recently changed. Construction projects at the airport continue as the airport looks to expand to accommodate increased passenger numbers. 

Travelers are also advised to be mindful of sidewalk closures as they become more frequent in the coming weeks and follow posted signs to access the terminal and parking areas.
