## Insider tips

- _Insider_: With security lines so short, locals arrive about 60 minutes pre-departure and still have time for a latte at The Ore Cart.
- _Local_: Make use of free Wi-Fi throughout the terminal instead of wasting data, perfect for working or streaming content before your flight.
- _Avoid_: Preceding a late-night flight without arranged transport isn't wise given the unpredictability of rideshares.
- _Time_: Checked bags appear rapidly post-flight — expect to be in your vehicle within 10-15 minutes of landing.
- _Money_: Take note of the free parking when flying locally as it's a budget-friendly option compared to other Montana airports.
- _Time_: Try booking the first flight to cut delays, especially in winter when late flights risk weather-induced postponements.
- _Quiet_: Spacious seating near the gates typically offers a serene, uncrowded environment for relaxing or repacking gear for those hitting the slopes or trails.
