Del Rio International Airport

Del Rio International Airport (DRT) is the primary gateway to Del Rio, Texas, opened in the mid-1940s and built up over decades to serve local travelers and border traffic. The compact facility has a single terminal and handles a mix of commercial and general aviation, making it an important regional airport for Val Verde County and nearby Ciudad Acuña. Located only a short drive from downtown Del Rio and Laughlin Air Force Base, the airport is reachable by car via regional highways with taxis, rideshares and limited shuttle options; public transit is minimal. DRT is not a major airline hub but sees service from regional carriers such as American Eagle to larger hubs, and fares are often competitive and affordable for budget-minded travelers.
