Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) at a glance
Dallas Fort Worth International Airport is the world's fourth-busiest airport with 85.7 million passengers in 2025 and the third-busiest by aircraft movements, spread across a site larger than the island of Manhattan between its two namesake cities. Opened in 1974, it is the primary hub of American Airlines, the world's largest carrier, whose operation touches most of the airport's five terminals.
DFW is in its biggest building phase since opening: the new Terminal F, a rebuilt Terminal C and pier extensions are designed to push capacity toward 100 million passengers by the end of the decade, cementing the airport's role as the connecting point between the Americas and, increasingly, the world.
