Hudson News
Finding it
Hudson News is in Concourse E, 2nd Level Departures in Central Terminal at Miami International Airport. It sits landside, so you can reach it without a boarding pass — and you still have to clear security afterwards.
Central Terminal has 32 places to eat and 31 shops in this directory; the earliest opens at 4am.
Hours against the security queue
Hudson News 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
The only one of MIA's six Hudson News locations positioned before the checkpoint, which makes it useful for picking up reading material or a phone charger before clearing security rather than after. Hours run 6 a.m. to 9 p.m., shorter than the Concourse G store's 4 a.m.-to-11:30 p.m. run. It shares this pre-security stretch of Concourse E with Air Essentials and Leather & Co., so travelers arriving early can cover electronics, luggage and a newsstand stop without needing a boarding pass yet.
One of 6 Hudson News locations at Miami International Airport (Central Terminal, North Terminal, South Terminal).
Other options in Central Terminal
