Live conditions
METAR / TAF from NOAA Aviation Weather Center · NOTAMs from FAA NOTAM Search. Live data refreshed on each page load.
History
Opened in January 1974 to consolidate air traffic for the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex, replacing Greater Southwest International on the Fort Worth side and absorbing growth Love Field could not handle on the Dallas side. The largest airport in Texas by area (over 17,000 acres) and American Airlines' largest hub worldwide; the carrier's headquarters are adjacent.
More about this airport
About this profile
Reference data (codes, coordinates, elevation, runways, owner, opening date) is curated from each airport's official authority page, the FAA's airport reference system for US airports, NAV CANADA and Transport Canada for Canadian airports, and AFAC and the operating concessionaire for Mexican airports. Latest passenger figures are CY 2023 totals where confidently sourced.
Live METAR and TAF are fetched from NOAA's Aviation Weather Center on each page load. NOTAMs (US airports) are fetched from the FAA NOTAM Search. If a source is unreachable when this page loads, the corresponding section displays an "unavailable" message rather than a blank or stale value.
This data is re-verified on a recurring monthly cadence aligned to the FAA's NASR 28-day cycle.
