Hours against the security queue
Sushi Maki opens at 11:30am and closes at 8pm. FlyIndex's wait-time data puts the typical MIA checkpoint queue at 11 minutes around 11am.
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
This Sushi Maki sits on the Central Terminal's 2nd Level Departures, apart from both North Terminal branches of the brand, one of which runs 6 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. It's grouped with Jackson Soul Food, QUORE Gelato and Skittles Remix rather than another sushi counter, making it the only fast-sushi format in that immediate cluster. Being the sole Central Terminal location means a traveler connecting through Central who wants the same rolls has no second counter nearby to check before committing here; both North Terminal siblings sit across the airport, on a separate concourse structure entirely.
One of 3 Sushi Maki locations at Miami International Airport (Central Terminal, North Terminal).
