Quality Service and Amenities
PSP is committed to providing its passengers with quality service and amenities. The terminal has recently undergone extensive renovations that doubled the size of the ticket lobby, installed a new baggage system, and improved accessibility for disabled travelers. There’s also a variety of dining and shopping options and unique amenities that passengers can enjoy.
The airport is open 24 hours a day, and the TSA checkpoint opens at approximately 4:15 AM every day. Each airline has its own operating hours but typically, airlines open their ticket counters 2 hours before departure time, even for early morning flights.
