Toledo Express Airport

«Express» is a great word to describe this airport! Flying to Chicago on American, showed up forty minutes before, breezed through TSA and got on plane. Definitely would do it again!

Cute airport with plenty of parking. There was barely a line at security and the whole staff is really nice. There is free wifi and outlets along the windows which is a huge help when traveling. The only thing I would like to see improve is the food court area. There is a subway, snack bar, coffee bar and real bar, but not many options.

Tiny airport, and usually expensive. This time, however, the fare was less expensive than to Detroit. What a time saver, since we’re visiting Toledo. Easy airport to navigate. Just pull up to the sign that names your airline. No wait at the ticket counter to check bags. Only 3 travelers in security. Funny note: the gentleman who checked our bags was the same one who ran over to open the gate! I’ve never seen anything like that happen at DFW (my home airport). 11÷28÷14.

This place isn’t so bad. I’d much rather fly into TOL than Detroit any day. It’s a small regional airport, which means the lines for TSA and security were super short.
Upstairs there’s a small eating area (Subway, Hot Dogs, and Pizza) as well as a bar. Please note, the bar doesn’t have any exotic beers or craft beers on tap. They did have Yueingling, which the bartender offered instead of the Sam Adams Oktoberfest I requested. I politely declined. So, it’s definitely not an airport for city slickers like myself, but the people were really friendly.
Ticket and gate agents were super friendly as well.
Plus, it was fun to fly on small regional jet for a change.

Great vibe great people this is a really nice environment for a small town airport
I couldn’t be happier —

Quick and easy. Parking, security, boarding. This airport is an hour from home and if they keep the flights competitive I will definitely continue to fly in and out of here!

Smallest airport I’ve been to. I think this airport only has the small commuter planes (hence express airport). The good thing about this airport is you can come in an hour before your flight and you won’t be late.
I flew in for work and flew out of here as well.

Park on the runway and climb onto your plane!
It’s not quite that easy at Toledo Express, but it almost is.
Flights in and out are very limited. BUT, if they have the flight that you need (even if there is an extra connecting flight) I would highly recommend flying out of, or into, this airport.
If you live in any of Toledo’s southern or western suburbs, or any town to the south or west, flying out of TEA, as opposed to Detroit Metro, will save you between 2 and 3 hours.
Personally, I HATE waiting in lines, and the lines at Detroit Metro are epic. At Toledo Express, the lines are no big deal.
Astoundingly, the TSA agents at Toledo are actually courteous and helpful.
Overall, this great little airport is a great big asset to the Toledo metro area!

This place is tiny to end all tininess, but that’s a major benefit…
You barely have to show up more than 45 mins ahead of your departure time. Security is a breeze (usually there are only 1 – 3 people going thru it at any given time). The counter staff is all very helpful, the facilities are clean, and parking is cheap by the day, if you need to take advantage of that. The food offerings are pretty bad, but there is a bar and ice cream right there by the gate. What more do you need?
We have family in Toledo and they always ask us if it’s not cheaper to fly us into Detroit, but it never is… for the convenience of the location at the same price… why not? This place does so little domestic business, it would surely be closed if not for the corporate jet testing whatnots they do there.

I don’t think i am the typical «customer» for this airport but i went to an SCCA event here and it was a nice venue to host a race. Track surface was nice and so was the paddock. Ohh i wish there was more garbage cans but thats SCCAs fault

Toledo Express Airport is very small — but is also very cozy and convenient!
Flying into here — very easy to get down to the Hertz counter, Baggage claim, and then out to the car. Took less than 15 minutes to do everything and get out on the road.
Coming back — easy to park the rental car, walk in, drop off the keys, hit the American Airlines check in counter — zero line. Then through the TSA Security Checkpoint — again — no line = awesome! And the TSA folks at Toledo Express are actually friendly, fun, and nice! The TSA folks at Dulles could learn a few things from these folks.
After security — we headed up to Gate 3, and then found some places to set up shop next door by the bar — plugged in our devices to charge up and got some work done for a couple hours before our flight.
The food court area consists of a Subway, coffee shop, Tea something or other, and a full bar. Again — very cozy and everyone that works here is friendly and nice!
If you are looking out the windows at the runways — you might have the opportunity to see some military jets landing and taking off — I’m guessing there is an Air National Guard facility here as well.
I look forward to flying in and out of Toledo Express Airport again!

I had the good fortune of flying into TOL during my most recent trip home to NWO, by way of a layover in Chicago. While I normally would have flown into DTW, I found a smoking deal to arrive at this much closer airport.
TOL is by no means the most lavish airport, the glitziest or architecturally stimulating. But, it possesses a certain charm that ranks it high on my airport monitor. Plus, this was the first airport that I ever went to, to see off my uncle as he returned home to Texas. (I was 8, I believe.) The bar in the terminal has decent drinks and friendly staff, which after visiting my family can be a very beneficial service.
Considering TOL is about half an hour from my parents’ house, I hope to make TOL my preferred airport for flights home. I hope the mutterings about this airport closing are just paranoid gossip, because it’s a nice alternative to DTW.
