NEWSLETTER – New Year, New Adventures: 2025 Travel Resolutions Are Here (Statistics)

New Year, New Adventures

As we ring in the new year, let's set the stage for stress-free and memorable journeys in 2025. Inspired by The Points Guy, we invite you to create your own ultimate travel vision board with some of these helpful resolutions:

Travel Resolution #1: Arrive Early to RNO

Don't let a last-minute rush spoil your trip. This year, resolve to get to RNO early, allowing plenty of time for check-in, security screening and to navigate limited parking.

Pro tip: Plan to be at the airport two hours before your flight.

Travel Resolution #2: Plan Ahead and Travel Confidently

Take a moment to plan your transportation to and from the airport, before your trip is here. With the steady increase in passengers traveling, overflow parking might be the only available parking option, which requires extra time to navigate.

Whether you decide to get a ride or park at the airport, using resources on RenoAirport.com to make that decision ahead of time ensures smooth arrivals and departures.

Pro tip: Follow @RenoAirport on social media for travel tips and updates on parking at the airport.
