Change planes in BWI

[Tinkermom76]

I am looking at SW flights from Orlando to Buffalo and a lot of them change planes in BWI. Is BWI a big airport and how hard is it to change planes there. there seems to be 1.5 hours between flights is that enough time to change flights?

That will be plenty of time to change planes at BWI, especially since you will be flying on the same airline.

BWI is basically the third Big airport for DC. unfortunately BWI can be a bit interesting to get around since SWA sort of takes up different parts of the terminal there. 1.5 hours should be enough but I would suggest making sure to at least get an idea where the gate is before you take it easy.

We fly SWA frequently from BWI. You won't have any problems.

Plenty of time - we did a 30 minute plane change last November at BWI flying in from Albany.

Do I have to get my luggage and re-check it again?

No, your luggage will be checked through to your final destination. SW has its own area at BWI - 1 1/2 hours is plenty of time. There is a nice food court there for snacks.

Does anyone know if I do EBCI if I have to pay twice since I have to change planes?

No - you only pay EBCI one and you will be all set. You will be checked in on the second flight as well.
