Q: How do I report unusually low-flying aircraft?
A: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) requests anyone seeing an unusually low-flying aircraft report the sighting to the nearest FAA Flight Standards District Office (FSDO), the preferred notification point, or the nearest FAA Air Traffic Control (ATC) Facility, 972-582-1800.

Q: How long before my departure time should I arrive at the airport?
A: Please arrive at the airport at least 1 hour 15 munites prior to your scheduled departure time. This will ensure that you have enough time to obtain your boarding pass and go through the appropriate screening process prior to boarding.

Q: Can I park at the curb directly in front of the terminal?
A: Due to heightened security, no unattended vehicles are permitted directly in front of the terminal. Please use one of the public parking areas located in front of the terminal. You may be dropped off directly in front of the terminal, but someone must remain with the vehicle at all times.
Q: Should I book my flight directly from Tyler Pounds Regional Airport to my destination?
A: Yes, this can result in big savings rather than booking from Tyler to the hub, then from the hub to your destination.
