Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport
FAQ & Contact Us

It is recommended that you arrive 90 minutes prior to the departure time for check-in and security screening. We encourage passengers to give themselves additional time during peak travel periods and inclement weather.

In the event you arrive at the airport without valid identification, because it is lost or at home, you may still be allowed to fly. The TSA officer may ask you to complete a form to include your name and current address, and may ask additional questions to confirm your identity. If your identity is confirmed, you will be allowed to enter the screening checkpoint. You may be subject to additional screening.

You will not be allowed to fly if your identity cannot be confirmed, you chose to not provide proper identification or you decline to cooperate with the identity verification process.

TSA recommends you arrive at least two hours in advance of your flight time to allow ample time for security screening and boarding the aircraft.

All airlines require an unexpired form of local or federal government-issued photo ID, please see the TSA website below for up-to-date information:

If you have misplaced your photo ID, we recommend you contact your airline for further assistance.

The terminal opens at 4:00AM and closes at 1:00 AM or 30 minutes after the last arrival (whichever is later).

Information regarding TSA's PreCheck program is available here: https://www.tsa.gov/precheck. Please note that there is not an enrollment center at BZN, but occasional enrollment events. Information on upcoming events will be posted on the BZN website.

We recommend using the “What Can I Bring?” tool on the tsa.gov site. Learn what you can and can't take with you through the security checkpoint when you fly. Results will let you know if the item can be carried-on, packed in your checked baggage, or if it's not permitted for plane travel. The tool covers everything from CPAP machines to medication to baby food to e-cigarettes.

The passenger's airline can issue a pass for someone to escort an unaccompanied minor child, an elderly person or someone with physical challenges through the security screening checkpoint and to the gate. A pass can also be issued to meet passengers that need special assistance at the gate.

Please be aware that you are still required to show valid government issued photo identification. Allow plenty of time to complete this process with the airline at their ticket counter. It will be helpful if you alert the airline to this request when making reservations. Typically, the airline will only issue one pass. Therefore, you should not bring other children with you.
