For travelers passing through Baltimore Washington International Airport (BWI), maintaining an online presence is crucial. BWI has kept up with this need by providing complimentary WiFi access throughout the terminal. This ensures that whether you're catching up on work or staying in touch with loved ones, you can do so seamlessly.
WiFi Connection Info
The current network ID (SSID) for accessing BWI's free WiFi is #MyBWI-Fi. Please note, the SSID is subject to change, so it's always a good idea to verify the current network name upon arrival at the airport.
To connect to the WiFi using your smartphone, tablet, or laptop, simply follow these steps:
- Open your device's WiFi settings.
- Choose the #MyBWI-Fi network from the list of available networks.
- Input your email address when prompted and accept the terms of use.

If you encounter any issues connecting, BWI also offers numerous charging stations throughout the terminal. These stations allow you to power up your devices and may help in establishing a better WiFi connection.
Airline Lounge WiFi
For those with access to airline lounges at BWI, additional WiFi options may be available. Lounge WiFi often provides a more exclusive connection environment, potentially offering higher speeds and a more secure connection. We recommend inquiring with lounge staff about accessing their WiFi services upon entry.
