Indianapolis IND Airport Overview


The new Indianapolis International Airport IND is located off I-70 (Exit 68), just five minutes west of I-465 and seven miles southwest from the central business district of the City of Indianapolis, in the center of Indiana, and is minutes from major U.S. interstate freeways I-65, I-69, I-70, and I-74, all of which connect to the city's I-465 beltway. It is also within minutes of U.S. 31, U.S. 36, U.S. 40, and U.S. 52. One of the nation's newest airports (now located on 7800 Col. H. Weir Cook Memorial Drive), it is built for maximum convenience and safety.
A host of airlines serve the Airport with flights to all parts of the U.S. and to Canada, with connections around the world, and offer some of the lowest fares in the U.S. With an average of 170 daily nonstop flights, they serve 8 million passengers annually. The Airport is also home of the world's second-largest FedEx Express operation.

The passenger terminal features soaring architecture and abundant natural light, has 40 gates on two concourses A & B, two of which lead to US Customs & Border Protection and a Federal inspection service area for international passengers. Spacious security checkpoints have the most advanced screening technologies with designated lanes for frequent flyers, casual travelers, families with small children, and those with special needs. Passengers with tickets can easily move between the concourses without the need of re-screening, great shopping and dining, and free Wi-Fi throughout. 

If you need to pick up an arriving passenger, use the free Cell Phone Lot--follow blue signs after exiting I-70 via Exit 68. The lot has 49 spaces. Stay with your vehicle until your party calls you to be picked up at the curb.
Other parking options include the Parking Garage, the long-term lot or Economy parking, with no maximum/minimum stay required. The parking garage is connected to the passenger terminal via an enclosed pedestrian bridge on Level 3, and divided into section red and section green, with a total of 6,000 spaces. Free shuttles serve long-term lot and economy parking. Make sure you make a note of your parking space.

To get from the Airport to town, you may want to stop by the Ground Transportation Center on Level 1 of the Parking Garage. The GTC is a one-stop shop for rental cars, taxi and limousine service, commercial bus and shuttle service, public transportation via IndyGo, and hotel courtesy vehicles.
