A one-hall Centre County field with official American PHL metal, leftover CLT from 5 Oct 2026, official United IAD / ORD, leftover $7 Economy / $12 Main lots after two free hours, official Penn Valley Cafe, and no ticketed lounge. Easy when you hit the leftover 4:30 a.m. TSA open; thin if you need a walk-up club or a CATA curb.
An editorial 0–10 score. The overall is exactly the weighted sum of six traveler categories — not a Google rating and not a poll.
Enter your flight for a door-to-door plan: when to leave, security, the lounge you can use and your gate. No account needed.
