Can you order ahead at an airport via Starbucks and skip the line?

Yes! You can order ahead at an airport via Starbucks and skip the line as you walk🚶 to go and pick up your order. As we all know, airports are busy, and the Starbucks store is usually crowded before opening. When you place your order on the Starbucks app, you only wait until the shop opens. Do not worry if there is a long line of people waiting. Just walk past them to the counter and inform the barista you have already ordered ahead. You will be served depending on the time your drink will be ready.

Can you order anything at an airport using the Starbucks app?

There is a possibility that you can order anything at the airport using the Starbucks app. However, I would assume that most Starbucks stores located in airports focus more on beverages, drinks, and food, as they are the ones that are in demand.

If you want to enjoy any size of your drink from Starbucks, you must do it before boarding a plane, as only drinks under 3.4 ounces are allowed on planes. Alcoholic drinks are also not allowed on planes.
