While at the Airport
Media outlets are welcome in all areas of the airport that are accessible to the public including the ticket lobby, baggage claim, parking lots and roadways. The terminal concourses, airfield areas, buildings and land will require a personal escort by a credentialed member of the District’s communications team.
Restaurants, shops, lounges, airline and rental car operating spaces, and all other tenant leasehold areas are private. Permission must be obtained from those entities before filming inside spaces leased by third-parties.
Equipment and/or personnel at the security checkpoint may not be filmed or photographed. In the event that enhanced security procedures are mandated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Transportation Security Administration (TSA) or other regulatory authority, there may be additional restrictions on media access.
Interior building live shots are permitted with wireless technology. Cords may not be used inside buildings. Do not block egress or walking paths. Media visits must not impede passenger traffic or airport operations.
Requests to film from the airfield at GSP are handled on a case-by-case basis. Decisions are made based on the airport’s manpower to accommodate such requests, as well as operational and safety considerations.
