Serving nearly 36 million passengers each year, Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW), lies just 18 miles west of downtown and is among the 20 busiest air transportation hubs in the world. In addition to serving as the largest hub in the world for Northwest Airlines, the world’s fifth largest airline by revenue passenger miles, DTW is home to fourteen additional airlines, including several low-cost carriers and foreign-flag carriers.  Altogether, DTW offers more than 1,200 non-stop flights per day to over 160 destinations worldwide.

DTW’s new North Terminal recently opened, now serving as Detroit’s home to Air Canada, American Airlines, AirTran Airways, Frontier Airlines, Lufthansa German Airlines, Royal Jordanian Airlines, Southwest Airlines, Spirit Airlines, United Airlines, US Airways, USA 3000, and charter airlines.

Together with the McNamara Terminal, which opened in 2002, DTW features two new terminals, nearly 150 gates, six jet runways, and two modern Federal Inspection Services facilities for international arrivals. As a hub, the majority of travelers pass through Northwest Airlines’ $1.6 billion Edward H. McNamara/Northwest WorldGateway Terminal, which offers modern conveniences like international and domestic gates located in one facility, E-ticket kiosks, luggage check-in both in the connected parking deck and curb-side, kids’ play areas, two indoor trams that travel the one-mile length of Concourse A, and a 404-room Westin Hotel connected to terminal.
