Dallas is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Dallas/Fort Worth International (DFW) functions as the region’s large international hub, hosting major network carriers and many long-haul flights; it’s typically perceived as mid-range to premium in price depending on carrier and season. DFW lies about 20–25 miles northwest of downtown Dallas; travel options include TRE commuter rail + DART light rail or shuttle services (roughly 30–50 minutes, fares vary by route), taxis and rideshares (30–45 minutes, fare depends on demand). Pros: wide airline choice and frequent connections; cons: large footprint and longer transfer times between terminals. Love Field (DAL) operates more as a domestic/budget-focused airport, favored by low-cost and domestic carriers with generally competitive fares. Located roughly 6–8 miles north of downtown, it’s convenient for short trips: expect a 10–20 minute taxi or rideshare (fares vary) or a short bus/light-rail connection to central transit hubs. Pros: closer and quicker for downtown access; cons: fewer international connections and less extensive amenities than the big hub.
