Duty Free Americas
Finding it
Duty Free Americas is in Concourse H, 2nd Level Departures by Gate H-4 in South Terminal at Miami International Airport. It is airside, past the security checkpoint, so allow for the queue before you count on it.
South Terminal has 21 places to eat and 42 shops in this directory; the earliest opens at 12am.
Hours against the security queue
Duty Free Americas opens at 6am and closes at 9pm. FlyIndex's wait-time data puts the typical MIA checkpoint queue at 16 minutes around 6am.
Across the week, MIA security runs longest around 5pm at a median of 16 minutes, and lightest around 11pm at 2 minutes. The queue is typically building before this location opens.
Queue figures are medians from FlyIndex's MIA wait-time record, not a live reading.
About this location
By Gate H-4, this Duty Free Americas keeps the shortest hours of the South Terminal's three counters, open 6 AM to 8 PM. The H/J connector location opens an hour earlier and stays open an extra hour, and the Gate J-6 counter doesn't close at all. That makes this one better suited to a morning or early-afternoon departure than a late one. It sits with Subway, Farm2Air Market and Carlo's Bake Shop Express in the same stretch of concourse near the gate.
One of 11 Duty Free Americas locations at Miami International Airport (Central Terminal, North Terminal, South Terminal).
