History
Established 1930 as Wayne County Airport. Delta inherited a major hub here from Northwest Airlines in the 2010 merger and has retained it as the carrier's primary Midwest hub. The McNamara Terminal (Delta) opened 2002; Concourse A is one of the longest airport piers in the world at over a mile, with an underground tram between the central node and the far end.

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.
