Dallas TX - DFW International

About Dallas TX - DFW International Airport

Since 1973, Dallas Fort Worth International Airport has been welcoming air passengers from around across the United States and the world to the most populous city in Texas.

This huge airport welcomes around 70 million passengers every year. The largest hub in the world for American Airlines, DFW might be regarded as a city in its own right. Sprawling across more than 17,000 acres, it’s home to an incredible seven runways and five terminal buildings.

A transport hub of this size requires a comprehensive transportation system, and that’s exactly what you’ll find at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport. While you can walk between Terminals A-D, it’s not usually advisable. The automated people mover system Skylink is the best way to transfer to all five terminals. The Terminal Link is a free shuttle system that runs a service every 10 minutes between 5am and midnight.

Home to a dazzling array of VIP lounges, retail areas, and eateries, this world-class facility is easily one of the best in the world. We’ve created this Dallas Airport guide to ensure you make the most of your next travel experience.

If you’re travelling to the airport by car, you’ll need to take State Highway 183 from the south or Highway 114 from the north. You can also access the airport via Interstate 365, but it gets pretty busy at peak times of the day. Wherever you’re coming from, you’ll access the airport via International Parkway. Just be sure to concentrate on the road signs to ensure you arrive at the right terminal, hotel or parking zone.

Car rentals
There are 11 car rental firms based at the airport’s 24-hour Rental Car Center, which is located right by the south entrance.
