For being a relatively small regional airport, CID offers a good selection of flight options from several carriers, including Allegiant Air, American Eagle, Continental Express, Delta Connection and United Express. Among the flight options are Chicago O'Hare, Denver, Minneapolis/St. Paul, Memphis, Atlanta, Dallas/Fort Worth, Las Vegas and Orlando. The airport has two concourses, and perhaps to make it seem larger than it really is there is no Concourse A. Instead, Concourse B has seven gates and Concourse C has six. Concourse B is primarily used by Allegiant Air, while the other airlines generally depart out of Concourse C.

If you need to burn a little time before your flight leaves, there is a small museum that showcases the history of the airport, which dates back to the 1920s. For decades it was known simply as Cedar Rapids Airport but it received its new name of the Eastern Iowa Airport in 1997. Since then it has continued to grow and expand and recently topped one million passengers in a year for the first time. That growth has also helped to reduce the cost of flying into Cedar Rapids because of the increased demand and competition.
