? for anyone who flies USAir thru PHL

Post by PA Girl »

I have a question for anyone who flies US Airways through Philly?

What terminal does the direct STT flight depart from? I seem to remember Terminal A.

I ask because our connecting flight got moved up to a crazy early departure and we have 3 hours to kill at the PHL airport. I have access to the US Airways lounge and intend to camp out there.

Is A the one connected to the hotel? If so it is NOT that one.

I flew PHL-STT USair just a few weeks ago - direct 8:30? am flight - it left out of Terminal A - the International terminal - 1st one on the right.
It was really crowded even at 6:30 AM!! - I used the curbside checkin - much faster - and they also directed me to an entrance farther down to the left[facing the building] that was a little used TSA check point - the lines at the other TSA were over an hour long and airport personnel kept bring groups of 20 or so people over to the one I used.

Be careful! If your first flight lands at terminal F, take the shuttle bus over to terminal A. Do not exit the terminal or you will have to go through security, lines are very long. If you land at B or C, ask how to get to A without leaving the terminal. Not sure if it is by shuttle or walking. ( long walk)

Thanks. I thought it was A but then I read something on flyertalk that made me second guess myself. Looking forward to hanging in the Term A lounge.

We come into F and will take the bus. Last trip our gates were at the absolute opposite ends of the airport and even with practically running, we almost missed our connection, which is why I booked an earlier flight.
