"This is a very small airport"
52 reviews Mahmud Noormohamed (United States)
✅ Trip Verified | This is a very small airport with A gates on the lower level and B gates on the upper level. The concourse for the B gates is very narrow and it becomes very crowded with very little room to walk by when passengers line up to board their flights. There is a dearth of outlets to charge phones. WiFi was okay and seating was adequate. I only noticed one sit down restaurant on the upper level. Restrooms were clean. Going through security (TSA-Pre) took less than 5 minutes. Given the increasing popularity of Destin/Fort Walton, the airport is expanding the baggage claim area; however, it could do with a brand new terminal for its A and B gates.

"Worst airport ever"
Michelle Mcgee (United Kingdom)
✅ Trip Verified | Worst airport ever. Flight delayed, plane arrived broken, midnight and still not gone from this place! Locked in! TSA gone so no cigarette for 6 hours! A 3rd world country has better airport. Make the drive to Panama City beach and fly out of there!

Destin-ft. Walton Beach Airport customer review
E Slick (United States)
This airport is very unprofessional. At 6 am I got in line to check my baggage in. There were 5 people in front of me and an inept crew behind the counter not helping anyone. There were two kiosks and one was out of order. The woman trying to use the only working kiosk took forever. After about 20 minutes one of the slack-jawed employees finally asked if he could help anyone. Well of course he could! 20 minutes ago. The impersonal level of the employees here was shocking and the airport was hot and stuffy.
