Advice/feedback please: Transferring through BWI (Baltimore, MD)
Hello again fellow FT'ers,
Following up on my PVD travel ask, I'll be first time flying through BWI with Mrs. Wingrider on Saturday 10/21 around 12:45pm and have almost a 2 hour layover. We are both Clear/PreCheck enabled. I assume we'll stay air-side in the airport.
I am hoping to get some advice or feedback on tips for gates, decent food choices or anything that might be nice to know passing through a new-to-us airport.
Thanks in advance.

you can see the gate layout at www.bwiairport.com ; WN is in the A and B concourses (all connected airside); gates A1-A5 are on a lower level.
There's Obrycki's for crab cakes. The discussion http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/south...d-upgrade.html had a thread drift to BWI food options starting at post 49.

I haven't had a chance to check it out but their beer is good. Since BWI is my home airport I don't do much sit-down, just usually grab-and-go at Chipotle or McDonald's.
+1 for Silver Diner too.

If TSA is short, this could be a great time killer as we have some time between flights... Thanks!

These food ideas sound solid. We have an SJC transcon ahead of us so lunch and now the option of some sort of carryon snack sounds promising.
