MULTI-BILLION dollar parking garages with special-air-service & short-haul buses that will shuttle arriving & departing passengers 'only' to on-site/off-site car rental locations.
Lots of 'motels-not-hotels' clustered arount the airports, lots of 'drive-thru' fast food outlets, lots of places to fill up the gaz tanks of rental karz.
Transport choices for those who choose 'not' to rent-a-kar, call for a limouzine or taxi?:

Demonstrating that Railwayist, as usual, does not know of what he prattles. One airline later this year will begin charging $100 for each bag that is to be placed in the overhead bins and has not been paid for prior to reaching the gate. The idea is to avoid the kind of congestions most airlines now suffer during the boarding process by "encouraging" customers to check their bags and not bring them into the cabin. Amtrak may handle the two footloockers, but Spirit Airlines will not. It's called competition.
