- DSM Airport Overview
Des Moines International DSM Airport is located approximately six miles south of downtown Des Moines, Iowa and is accessible via Interstate 80 and 235. The Airport handles nearly two million passengers per year and is served by major U.S. airlines and their affiliates, offering direct flights to major cities in the country, with connections to all points of the globe.
Remodeling work on the two concourses are underway with new ceilings, sprinkler systems, walls and carpeting, and reconfiguration of the gate area seating, to be completed by April 2010. Work, anticipated to take a year, has started to move the large baggage x-ray machine out of the terminal lobby and put it behind the ticket counters, enabling passengers to go straight to screening. The passenger terminal includes the following amenities: a business center, rental car desks, gift shop, hotel information, restaurant & lounge, TDD telephone, and massage therapy.
If you need to pick up an arriving passenger, use the free Cell Phone Lot--stay with your car until your party calls you to be picked up at the curb. Other parking options include two parking garages with skywalks to the main terminal area, Short- & Long-term, as well as economy parking is available 24/7, with ample handicap spaces in all areas, and shuttle bus service to economy lots. Automated exit lanes make parking easy. Note that the fully-automated Airport 2 parking facility with shuttle service to the terminal is only $4/day and is located across Fleur Street, just south of the Holiday Inn.
To get from the Airport to your destination, you can take a taxi, rent a car or take a bus. Cabs go to any location in central Iowa and buses are available throughout the metro area. The interstate transit bus lines link Central Iowa and the surrounding counties around Polk (where the Airport & the City of Des Moines are) via 'Heart of Iowa Regional Transit'. To get to Ames (Iowa State University), CyRide in Ames offers periodic service during holidays, semester breaks, and the beginning and end of the school year.
