Tampa International Airport People Movers

This is a list of automated people mover systems located at airports around the world. These systems are used to transport people from one location within an airport to another.

Many different types of people movers are used at airports, including automated guideway transit, monorail, and maglev. Airport people movers typically lack seating and compartment spaces, while also having wide doors for quick alighting and boarding of passengers and their hand luggage.
