Birmingham Brewhouse

The Birmingham airport is what i would consider a small-medium sized airport. I flew into this airport aroiand it was pretty empty. As i walked by the TSA area towards baggage claim, the screening section seemed adequately staffed and people seem to be moving fast. Very easy to get around. Leaving the parking deck (either in a rental or personal) is confusing. The lanes after you exit are not very well marked. If you don’t pay attention, you can end up circling the terminal. Also, it can take what seems like an eternity to get your luggage. But most of the time the people that work there are friendly and helpful. Since there only two concourses, it’s not that difficult to navigate. In 2008, the airport was renamed Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport to honor the world-changing legacy of late Birmingham civil rights activist Rev. Fred Shuttlewworth. Their modernized terminal boasts free WiFi, convenient charging stations, children’s play areas, a sensory room, private nursing and meditation rooms, and a variety of renowned local and national restaurants. including: Red Mountain Grill, Birmingham Brewhouse, Chick-Fil-A, Starbucks, and more. BHM is home to four airlines, servicing over 100 daily flights to 15 cities for more than 3 million passengers: American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Southwest Airlines, and United Airlines.

This is a small airport and it’s not very busy. It’s actually cute. That means you can get through check in and security pretty quickly. The staff has southern hospitality which is expected and will be glad to assist you. Finding your way around here is very easy. Bathrooms are clean and good selection of food.
