Departures from Southwest Florida International Airport

Fort Myers Airport departures: how to read the board

The departures board above lists the flights leaving Southwest Florida International today, with the scheduled departure time, the estimated or actual time, the destination and the status. It updates continuously; an estimated time later than the schedule means a delay, and departed means the aircraft has left the gate.

RSW has one terminal with check-in on the upper level and the gates in concourses B, C and D beyond a single security checkpoint. In the winter season and at the end of the spring-break weeks the checkpoint is busy: the Southwest, Delta, United Airlines and American Airlines flights to the Midwest and Northeast leave close together in the morning and at midday. Arrive two hours ahead in season.

Dropping off and getting there

Drop off curbside on the upper departures level for active unloading only; to walk in together, use the short-term garage opposite the terminal. LeeTran buses run from Fort Myers to the terminal, taxis and ride apps drop off at the departures curb, and by car the airport is off I-75 southeast of Fort Myers; the rental-car returns are at the terminal garage.

The board is dominated by flights to the Midwest and Northeast: Southwest, Delta, United, American, JetBlue and Frontier to Chicago O’Hare, Atlanta, Boston, Charlotte, Minneapolis, Newark and Detroit, with Air Canada and WestJet to Toronto in winter.
