You have your answer on the airport forum. :-)

I guess you're asking about the Tampa airport. This is a great place. The airport is sort of a spider web with the main terminal in the middle and the various airport terminals at the extremities. Motorized shuttles will take you to the AA terminal from the main terminal. Baggage claim is in the main terminal on the ground floor. You will see an escalator as you walk out of the shuttle from the AA terminal, and a sign to BAGGAGE.

321, I'm guessing you mean TIA..Tampa's airport. There are no moving sidewalks, but it's nothing like Houston where they have them, or DFW between concourses. A tram takes you to the Concourse and from there your walk may take perhaps 5-10 minutes, dedpending on your speed and the location of the gate on the concourse.

It's a well organized and easy to maneuver airport. Returning, you have the same tram from the concourse to the main terminal where baggage claim is located. Tram is a snap...one stop on each end. It's an extremely user friendly airport!
