This study examines the access to the BWI Airport in detail. Complex density functions are utilized to determine the congestion curves faced by passengers arriving at the airport. It is found that all lots have congestion during peak periods and that this congestion approaches levels where marginal entry access times are greatly accelerating. The lots that are most susceptible to this phenomenon are the satellite lots and the terminal roadway for drop-off passengers. The results highlight the importance of using figures other than the average access time in determining the impact of congestion on terminal access times. The passengers susceptible to congestion arrive at the terminal much more slowly than the difference in the average access times would indicate.
