The most common and strangest items left at RSW, at Fort Myers Airport
Thousands of items are left RSW every year. Here are some unusual!
Satisfaction can be “guaranteed”, but in most cases it is not delivered.
And at airports such as the Southwest Florida International (RSW) Fort Myers, the aim to make everyone happy or satisfied with the fact that people come and go every day.
2024. RSW found the height of all time with more than 11,000,000 passengers flying to and from the region. This year, the airport runs at a similar pace within four months, including the start of the tourist and Snowbird season.
In the latest study of North American Airport Satisfaction from JD Power on September 17, RSW is re -evaluated among the best average airports earning the top 10 status.
On a scale of 1000, based on 30,439 performed by our or Canadian passengers’ research on items such as travel, trust level, terminal equipment, staff, food, drinks and retail, and RSW earned more points this year, but in 2025.
The historic development project, including the construction of a new terminal, is implemented by RSW.
The three of the seven best medium -sized rating airports were from Florida. The other two airports in the top 10 are:
What airport arrived no. 1? Indianapolis International Airport has once again earned the best (713) medium airports.
Average airports, as defined as those with passengers from 4.5 to 9.9 million a year.
Despite the fact that 2025 Slowed, air trips from Pandemic returned from Pandemic.
According to the permission of the Transport Security Administration, more than 10 million people crossed the TSA control points over the long weekend of the working day, and nearly three million travelers who were on August 29th. Marked the largest Friday of all time before the working day and the 15th busiest day in the quarter of the almost quarter -century TSA existence.
The 20th annual study of North American Airport from JD Power shows that customer satisfaction increased on a 10-point 1000 scale, despite the crowd and widespread cancellations and delays. The survey revealed the overall increase in satisfaction by 8 points at Mega airports, 10 points for medium air ports and 15 points for large ports.
There were several familiar names at the top, Minneapolis-St. Paul’s International Airport in the second year rated the greatest satisfaction with passengers among the several years, while John Wayne Airport, Orange County, was again the highest place among large airports, and the Indianapolis International Airport again took the highest signs between medium airports.
In Florida, the Orlando International Airport took one place to 7th place for the Mega airports, and Miami’s International Airport moved to 8th place. For large ports, the International becomes 2nd place.
“Although the annual growth rate of passengers seems to rise, we still see a record number of travelers through the country’s airports, and they usually use experience,” said Michael Taylor, CEO of JD Power, JD Power travel, hospitality and retail.
The study increased improvements to dining room and retail deals and “travel” lightness through airports, as well as several larger capital improvement projects. The study also helped a lot most of the help of the local color.
“One of the greater increase in passengers of this year is food, beverage and retail programs that improved 14 points a year in all segments of the airports. The efforts of airports to include authentic local food and beverage brands in their final offers helped to increase,” said JD Power.
Better experience has also translated more costs. Passengers, having evaluated their airport experience as “perfect”, spent an average of $ 42.39 in the terminal, the study said. These were $ 16.54 more than passengers who rated their airport experience as “just well”.
2025
Security (and long rows) are more problems at large airports.
The study found that an average of 56% of passengers traveling through average airports and 50% of travelers spent 10 minutes or less at large airports. Those passengers were also those who probably called the airport “gently overflow” or “not overloaded”.
However, 23% of Mega Airport passengers spent 21 minutes or more, while 57% describe the airport as “moderately overloaded”.
The Homeland Security Department has taken steps in the last few months to simplify TSA control points, such as dropping shoes, running face recognition of Egats to speed up the inspection, and adding faster pre -lane and programs to speed up some airports and military travelers at airports.
