Post-Security (Airside)

Fort Wayne International Airport provides convenient indoor pet relief areas for travelers with service animals or pets. These facilities are located post-security on both levels of the terminal:

First Floor Pet Relief Station

An indoor Service Animal Relief Area (SARA) is available on the first floor after passing through security screening. This climate-controlled facility allows pets to relieve themselves comfortably regardless of weather conditions.

Second Floor Pet Relief Station

A second indoor pet bathroom is located on the second floor in the post-security area, providing additional convenience for travelers whose gates are on the upper level.

Amenities & Access

  • Climate-Controlled: Both pet relief stations are indoors, offering year-round comfort
  • Post-Security Access: These facilities are only accessible after TSA security screening
  • Service Animal Friendly: FWA is committed to accessibility and welcomes service animals throughout the airport
  • Leash Requirements: Pets must remain on leashes at all times when not in the designated relief area

Additional Pet-Friendly Features

Fort Wayne International Airport participates in the Hospitality PAWS program, featuring certified therapy dogs that visit the terminal multiple times per week to provide comfort to travelers. While these therapy dogs are not available for personal interaction in the same way as the pet relief areas, their presence demonstrates FWA's pet-friendly approach to customer service.

Planning Your Visit

For travelers with service animals or pets requiring relief area access, plan to use the facilities after clearing security. The availability of stations on both floors ensures convenient access regardless of your gate location.
