"a guaranteed waste of time"

(United States)

Not Verified | This airport is a guaranteed waste of time. Domestic flights connecting east to west or vice versa are often dropped off on the tarmac in terminal A with 20 minutes to exit the plane, wait until you load on the lethargic bus driver inch to the ramp for not the terminal and sprint a mile to terminal D—for instance. Good luck making your connection. Between the way they have connections physically spaced and how closely they are scheduled, it’s like they are actively working to prevent connections. I am rescheduling all my flights to avoid this airport.

"Worst for people who have a hard time walking"

(United States)

Not Verified | Worst airport for people who have a hard time walking. No moving sidewalks or tunnel shuttles. No quick places to buy food in Southwest terminal.

"Security is a complete mess"

(United States)

Not Verified | This is a beautiful airport with a great selection of food & shopping. Unfortunately that is where it ends. I think it must have been laid out by a 5 year old. Getting to my Southwest gate from the car rental I had to change floor levels 5 times. Security is a complete mess and so disorganized. The different gate terminals are so long and the distance is ridiculous. I could never take an elderly parent to visit.

"a terrible experience going through security"

(United States)

Not Verified | I had a terrible experience going through security. After standing in line I arrived to a dozen or so numbered check in points for boarding pass and ID, to the right and left. The TSA man there was visibly angry and yelled at me to “GO!” and waved his hand like he was flagging a cab. I  asked him politely which station I should go to. He became even more angry and said  “Just go, and someone will show you.” There were no other agents visible but eventually I found someone who would could direct me.  After going through the scanning procedure I went to pick up the tray with my belonging. An agent was flinging trays around so violently, he almost banged me on the head with a tray.

"Arriving I’ve yet to have a good experience"

(United States)

Not Verified | I have had recent knee replacement and then surgery from a broken ankle. I’ve flown 3 times from SLC airport with a requested wheelchair. Getting on the plane has been great. Arriving I’ve yet to have a good experience. The first time while still on crutches they pushed me to the elevator and said I had to walk to luggage from there. The second time there was a wheelchair there so my husband pushed me. I’ve been stranded trying to get to my plane and asking for help but no one would help. Even those pushing a vacant wheelchair in my direction. Yesterday was the final straw! When I got off the plane there were no wheelchairs for the three of us who requested one. We stood outside the plane for over 20 minutes. Finally when they came to get me, another lady did not have anyone to push her so an employee pushed both of us. He asked several people to help but they said they were not allowed. Two nice passengers helped for a short time. My daughters and our ride waited for some time for us to arrive. Your system needs revamped!

"This airport is ridiculous"

(United States)

Not Verified | This airport is ridiculous. There is no accommodations for people with trouble walking long distances. The “close” gates are a mile walk if you go to concourse A god forbid you have a B concourse it could be up to 4 miles. The wait for a wheelchair for my 85 yr old grandmother was over 45 minutes. The powered walk ways barely help at all. How do they plan to be more ADA accessible because this is absolutely disgusting.

"Security lines were a nightmare"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Looks like I am not the only one who had a terrible experience. Security lines were a nightmare then a forever walk to the gate. I just barely mad my flight with my normal time allowance, this arriving at the airline check-in at 4 am. I would allow 2 hours when flying out of here.

"depressing, terrible airport"

(United States)

Not Verified | What a sorry excuse for airport! The fact that Delta uses this airport as an international hub is ridiculous. There are only a few gates that can handle wide body planes, so when there was a problems because of weather, our flight to AMS was hours late because the gate ready for this wide body was being occupied by two smaller planes. Both had to leave before our plane could move to the gate. I can't believe that this airport was upgraded recently. It is a good example of how behind the US is in terms of transportation. This is a terribly designed airport which degrades the whole system. Of course, the entire Utah Congressional delegation voted against the Biden infrastructure bill. It is also ugly. There is no art or color anywhere. It is a depressing, terrible airport.

"The new SLC airport almost killed me"

(United States)

Not Verified | The new SLC airport almost killed me. I'm 55 and fit, yet entered the airport and had the very last gate for SWA. I couldn't breathe at all with the SLC altitude and the 4 mile walk! It was unbelievable! My heart was pounding loudly, sweating because it's totally over heated! Why was this TORTURE airport allowed to be designed this way? Is this a joke? The architect hates his job?, and this appalling airport was his huge "F you!!!" to skiers and tourists? Grossly understaffed. The people responsible for approving this catastrophic disaster need to all be fired! Worst airport in USA!

"Worst luggage screening system"

(United States)

Not Verified | Worst carry on luggage screening system I’ve ever seen - seems designed to separate luggage from passengers and create long line on both pre-screening and post-screening sides. Long lines for tsa pre. Only airport where I must always take off shoes or belt at tsa pre. Ridiculous walk to gates from screening point. Snarky posters about how it’s “for my own good because doctors recommend 10,000 steps a day”
