KFC
Finding it
KFC is in 2nd Level Departures in North Terminal at Miami International Airport. It is airside, past the security checkpoint, so allow for the queue before you count on it.
North Terminal has 51 places to eat and 60 shops in this directory; the earliest opens at 4am.
Hours against the security queue
Across the week, MIA security runs longest around 5pm at a median of 16 minutes, and lightest around 11pm at 2 minutes.
Queue figures are medians from FlyIndex's MIA wait-time record, not a live reading.
About this location
MIA has just the one KFC, on the North Terminal's 2nd Level Departures walk, so there's no second location's hours to set it against. Service starts at 11:00am, which puts breakfast off the table here but lines up with the terminal's midday departure bank, and it runs to 9:00pm, covering the evening flights too. Unlike the terminal's Cuban counters that open before dawn, this one is built around lunch and dinner traffic rather than early departures, so it's a fallback for anyone who missed breakfast elsewhere on the D-gate concourse rather than a first stop of the day.
Other options in North Terminal
All past the same checkpoint, so you can reach them without clearing security again.
