Southwest Florida International Airport sits on 13,555 acres in unincorporated Lee County, located about ten miles southeast of Fort Myers. Serving the regional metropolitan areas of Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Naples, Marco Island, and Punta Gorda, it acts as a primary international port of entry. It stands as the second-busiest single-runway airport in the United States and served over 11 million passengers in 2025.
You will navigate a single main terminal building that features 27 gates organized across three distinct concourses: B, C, and D. Because concourses are not currently linked airside, passengers clear security directly at their respective concourse entry. The airport is undergoing a major terminal expansion project to consolidate security into a single checkpoint and add a fourth concourse, Concourse E, by 2027.

Lost, delayed or damaged baggage at RSW
If your checked bag doesn't turn up on the belt, act before you leave the baggage-claim area — that's where every airline keeps its Baggage Service Office.
- Go to your airline's Baggage Service Office in the baggage-claim hall of your arrival terminal.
- File a Property Irregularity Report (PIR) and get your file reference (WorldTracer) number. Keep your bag-tag receipt and boarding pass.
- Track it online using that reference on your airline's baggage-tracking page — most bags are located within 24–48 hours.
- Claim your essentials. On delayed bags airlines reimburse reasonable interim purchases (toiletries, clothing) — keep receipts. International trips are covered by the Montreal Convention.
- If it's truly lost (generally after 21 days) or damaged, file the claim at the same office — damage must be reported before you leave the airport.
Left something in the terminal (not a checked bag)? That's handled by the airport Lost & Found. Items left at a TSA security checkpoint are held by the TSA, not the airline.
