DFW Airport Parking Options

Dallas / Fort Worth International Airport

Dallas Fort Worth International Airport is a world-renowned facility that is the world's second busiest airport in terms of passenger traffic and third in terms of operations. As a superhub airport, it is a highly valued economic generator in the North Texas region.

DFW is located between Dallas and Fort Worth, hence its name. The airport itself takes up more acres than the island of Manhattan making it the second-largest airport in the U.S.

When it opened on January 13, 1974, it only had 9 airlines. During that time, it was already the world’s biggest airport, even when it was launched as a regional airport. Today, the airport has five terminals and seven runways.

DFW also holds the record as the first carbon-neutral airport in North America and the largest sustainable airport in the world.
