Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) is the region’s main commercial airport and one of the busiest airports in the world. It sits between Dallas and Fort Worth, with land in Tarrant and Dallas counties, and it is jointly owned by the two cities.
DFW is the largest hub for American Airlines, which is headquartered nearby in Fort Worth. The airport serves domestic and international destinations, and its terminals are connected airside by Skylink, an automated train that lets passengers move between terminals without leaving security.
The airport is in the middle of a major expansion. A Terminal A pier expansion adds about 140,000 square feet and 10 new gates; the first four gates opened in 2026, and American Airlines began operating from them in October. Construction is also under way on a new Terminal F, including a Skylink station whose prefabricated modules are now in place.
Travelers can find parking, valet, lost and found and customer service details on the airport’s support page. Airline passenger paging and general assistance are at (972) 973-3112, and DFW Lost and Found is at (972) 973-4420.
