The main problems were PA announcements throughout the night (No smoking etc etc), the bright lights and the floor waxing machine–When you are on the floor and this machine comes back and forth 12 inches from your head is not a nice thing to try to sleep through. – a traveller
GEG Airport Overview
To help you plan your layover or overnight sleepover, here is a quick run-down about what to expect during your time at Spokane International Airport.
What to Expect
Spokane International Airport (code: GEG) consists of a mid-size, partially renovated terminal with three small concourses (A, B and C) with 22 gates, and about 15 eateries and shops, located primarily on the airside. Vending machines provide the only snack and drink options after the shops and eateries close for the night, so plan accordingly. WiFi is available to help pass the time. There are no private lounges at this airport.
Sleeping in Spokane Airport
After security checkpoints close for the night, all passengers are restricted to the landside areas, and must re-clear security the next day when the checkpoints open. Travellers report that the staff are friendly and that comfortable seating conducive for sleeping can be found on the landside. There are reportedly comfortable seats near the baggage claim, and armrest-free seating and dimmed lights near the security screening gates. The airport is described as especially cold during the winter, so consider bringing a sleeping bag or travel blanket if planning to spend the night. For uninterrupted sleep, there is a hotel across the street from the terminal and others within a quick shuttle ride away. See Airport Hotels in the guide below or read some traveller airport reviews for more tips.
