An overall really smooth flying experience, nice to be at a smaller airport that is so less stressful. Very clean and constantly maintained. Six airlines fly out of this airport with limited departures but all are on time with very attentive staff. I flew in from Denver and am flying out to Denver

Beautiful, clean, gem of an airport! It feels bigger than it actually is- it’s got some great shops and restaurants inside, rocking chairs to sit in while you wait. Definitely a great airport to visit! I thoroughly enjoyed it.

This is a really beautiful Airport. Growing up and in the future hopefully we would have more options to flight non stop.

McGhee Tyson has always been a great experience. I love Knoxville and the airport has grown so much! I am flying to Utah for a bachelor trip and every flight has been on time and the United Airlines staff has been so accommodating and nice. The TSA pre check was swift and the staff was great there too. Even though I got randomly selected they were great! Recommend flying out of here for sure.

The airport is kept very tidy, and the staff are extremely professional. The security process is quick, as you don't have to remove your shoes or laptops, which I appreciated. While it is smaller than other airports, its proximity to the Smoky Mountains and Pigeon Forge attracts many tourists. I also liked the rental car pickup and drop-off areas, which are conveniently located near the main entrance and easily accessible by foot. The entrance features stunning waterfalls with both artificial and real plants, making it a great spot for photos. The sound of the waterfalls is soothing and welcoming.

This being such a small airport for semi-national flights, it goes HORRIBLY if something goes wrong. Having this airport only have like 6 commercial gates does not give room for more flights to other places for connections if your flight gets delayed or even cancelled. For example, my flight from here to Dallas, connecting to Phoenix was delayed from 2:07 pm to 7:30 because the pilot simply didn't show up. This caused us to try and scramble to get another connecting flight back home after our 5 day vacation in Knoxville with relatives. Unfortunately, because of the limited flights, our only option was to take the 7:30 flight to Dallas, stay at a hotel overnight, and fly back to Phoenix at 7:15 am. We ended up leaving the airport and coming back for our flight to see that our already late flight was now pushed back another 2 hours to 9:30 pm. Even worse, the TSA closed the gates before our plane even boarded! After an already stressful day, this is not what we needed. Overall, we will not be coming back. We will either fly to Nashville or Atlanta and just drive over. It's not worth the hassle of this crappy airport.
