Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport
The Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (IATA: DFW, ICAO: KDFW, FAA LID: DFW b>) (from English: Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport ), is located between the cities of Dallas and Fort Worth and is the busiest airport in the state of Texas.
With 685,491 air operations in 2007, it is the third busiest airport in the world in terms of air operations. In terms of passenger traffic, it is the seventh airport in the world carrying 59,784,876 passengers in 2007. 57,093,187 passengers passed through DFW Airport in 2008. In terms of land area, with 7,315 hectares (18,076 acres), It is the largest airport in Texas, the second largest in the United States, behind only Denver International Airport, and the third largest in the world. It is the ninth international gateway in the United States and the second in Texas, after George Bush Intercontinental Airport. It is tied with Chicago-O'Hare International Airport for the most runways at seven. In 2006, the airport was named the "Best Cargo Airport in the World" according to the second edition of a survey.
The airport, along with the incorporated cities of Coppell, Euless, Grapevine and Irving, serves 134 domestic and 37 international destinations and is the largest hub for American Airlines (745 daily flights) and also the American Eagle's largest hub. 85% of all Dallas/Fort Worth flights are operated by American Airlines. Delta Air Lines eliminated its Dallas/Fort Worth hub in February 2005 in an effort to cut costs and avoid direct competition with American. The airline reduced operations from 256 daily flights to just 21.
The airport is often referred to by its IATA code "DFW." It is operated in many respects like a small city. It has its own post office, zip code and public services. The United States Postal Service gives the airport its own designation, DFW Airport, TX. Members of the airport's board of directors are appointed by the "city owners" of Dallas and Fort Worth. The airport lies within the boundaries of three other suburbs, a situation that has led to legal battles over its jurisdiction (see below). To help ensure future harmony with its neighbors, the DFW Airport board includes a non-voting member - a representative elected from the airport's neighbors (Irving, Euless, Grapevine and Coppell) on a rotating basis.
DFW is connected by bus to a train station just south of the airport. The Trinity Railway Express line serves both downtown Dallas and downtown Fort Worth.
History
In 1927, before this area had an airport, Dallas proposed to Fort Worth that they jointly build one. Fort Worth declined the offer and so each city opened its own airport, Love Field and Meacham Field. Airlines offered services on both.
In 1940, the Civil Aeronautical Administration allocated $1.9 million for the construction of a regional Dallas-Fort Worth airport. The airlines American Airlines and Braniff International closed a deal with the city of Arlington to build an airport there, but the governments of Dallas and Fort Worth disagreed with such construction, which is why the project was abandoned in 1943. After the In World War II, Fort Worth annexed the site and converted it into Amon Carter Field with the help of American Airlines, where it later transferred its commercial flights from Meacham Field, in 1953. The new airport was only 12 miles (19 kilometers) from the Dallas Love Field airport.
In 1960, Fort Worth purchased Amon Carter Field and renamed it Greater Southwest International Airport (GWS), in an attempt to compete with the more successful Dallas airport. However, traffic at GWS continued to decline relative to Love Field: in the mid-1960s, Fort Worth received 1% of Texas air traffic while Dallas received 49%. This caused a virtual abandonment of GSW.
The joint airport proposal was revised in 1961 after the FAA refused to invest more resources in separate airports. Although the Fort Worth airport was eventually abandoned, Love Field became congested and soon ran out of room to expand. Following a Federal government order in 1964, the two cities finally reached an agreement on the location of a new regional airport, north of the abandoned GWS and about the same distance from each city's center. The land was purchased in 1966 and construction began in 1969.
The first Concorde landing in the United States occurred at DFW in 1973 as a commemoration of the airport's completion. This aircraft later operated in DFW in a cooperative agreement between Braniff Airways, British Airways and Air France, before the death of the first company ended the service.
DFW began commercial service on January 13, 1974, at which time it became the largest and most expensive airport in the world. In 1979, the Wright Amendment banned long-haul flights from Love Field, and DFW became the only airport in the metropolitan area to offer passenger air service on aircraft with more than 56 seats. Also in 1979, American Airlines moved its headquarters from New York to Fort Worth (next to DFW, where GWS used to be). American established its first DFW hub in 1981, beginning flights to London in 1982 and Tokyo in 1987. Delta Air Lines built a domestic hub in DFW during the same period, but announced its closure in 2004, due to restructuring of the airline to avoid bankruptcy. Today, Delta only operates flights from DFW to its three hubs, plus Orlando and New York (La Guardia).
Terminals
Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport has five terminals. The airport is designed with expansion in mind and can theoretically accommodate up to a total of thirteen terminals with a total of 260 gates, although this level of expansion is unlikely to be achieved in the foreseeable future.
DFW's terminals are semicircular (except for the newer Terminal D, which has a "U-square" shape) and built around the central north-south airport road, Spur 97, also known as the "International Parkway". Until the late 1990s, they were designated by a number (2 for northernmost, 4 for southernmost) and a letter suffix ("E" for East and "W" for West). This system was later removed and now the terminals were named A through E. Terminals A, C and E (from north to south) are on the east side of the airport, while Terminals B and D (from north to south) are on the west side.
DFW terminals are designed to minimize the distance between passenger cars and the plane, as well as reduce traffic around the terminals. One consequence of this design is that connecting passengers have to walk extremely long distances between doors (having to walk from one semicircular end of the hall to the other, you have to walk the entire length, there are no shortcuts between the doors). extremes).
- Terminal A has 31 doors: A9-A26, A28-A29, A33-A39
- Terminal B has 35 doors: B3-B30, B33-B39
- Terminal C has 31 doors: C2-C4, C6-C8, C10-C12, C14-C17, C19-C22, C24-C33, C35-C37, C39, note that American Airlines operates all the gates of Terminal C, originally called "Terminal 3E" only for national flights.
- Terminal D has 29 doors: D6-D8, D10-D12, D14-D18, D20-D25, D27-D31, D33-D34, D36-D40
- Terminal E has 26 doors: E2, E4-E18, E20-E21, E31-E38. Previously it served to be the Delta operations center in the 90's, and was initially built for Air France and Aeromexico to operate from that airport. In the 2000s, the SkyTeam alliance was the one who signed the exclusive operation of this terminal, but it is currently being operated by different airlines outside the alliance.
