From Irving, you can reach either coast in three hours, London in nine, or Tokyo in 13 -- plus the five to 15 minutes it takes to drive to the airport.

Building for the future
DFW Airport has positioned itself for future growth with a $2.7 billion Capital Development Program. Completed in July 2005, the program's major components are:

• International Terminal D. Within 2 million square feet of space, International Terminal D serves passengers with 28 departure gates, 99 ticketing stations and a U.S. Customs facility capable of processing 2,800 passengers per hour. The terminal features soaring ceilings, large-scale works of art, gourmet restaurants, upscale boutiques and a state-of-the-art post-9/11 security system. An attached parking garage holds 8,100 vehicles.
• Grand Hyatt Hotel. Integrated into the design of the terminal, and directly accessible to it, the 298-room Grand Hyatt Hotel features over 17,000 square feet of meeting space, as well as restaurants, a spa, rooftop pool and fitness center.
• Skylink. The world's largest "people mover" system, Skylink connects DFW Airport's terminals with high-speed trains that move passengers between terminals in five to nine minutes.

Cargo services
DFW Airport is also home to an impressive global distribution center, with 56 cargo carriers; 2.6 million square feet of cargo facilities; and Foreign Trade Zone No. 39, a Class A business park with direct highway access.
