Starting July 1, Wichita State will be offering free COVID tests to guests and employees at the Eisenhower Airport.

Tests will be done under the mezzanine, next to the Aviator’s Café, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Starting July 14, testing will be offered from 9 a.m. to midnight.

Students from WSU’s National Institute for Research & Digital Transformation will be conducting the tests. These will be saliva tests with results available within 24 hours through an online portal. The idea is to get a quick COVID test before boarding or while waiting to pick up luggage. This is not meant to serve as a community testing site.

If you need to get a COVID test there are still a couple options for free testing.

Sedgwick County Park, Sunflower Shelter, 6501 W. 21st St. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday: 8 am to 3:30 pm and Wednesday: 8 am to 6 pm.

Wichita State University Molecular Diagnostics Laboratory, 4174 S. Oliver. Wichita State University Molecular Diagnostics Laboratory at 4174 S. Oliver. Monday-Friday: 6am to 8pm. Saturday: 8am-12pm.
