Memphis International Airport MEM is located 12 miles southeast of downtown Memphis, Tennessee, and is accessible via Interstates 55, 40 & 240. Travelers from around the country and the world pass through the airport while making a pilgrimage to Graceland, Elvis Presley's 14-acre estate, which is a short distance from the airport. The Airport has three airline terminals: Terminals A, B & C.. Memphis Airport is also the hub for Delta Airlines; as well as the world's largest air cargo handler as a result of the FedEx superhub presence. Major airlines and minor regional jet services offer direct and connecting flights within the country and around the world. Memphis International serves about 10 million passenger a year.

The Passenger Terminal consists of a main passenger terminal and three concouses, referred to as 'Terminals A, B & C'. Among its services are restaurants & shops, Delta Sky Cub, ATMs and currency exchange, rental car & hotel reservation desks (located in the baggage claim area) and animal relief areas on both sides of the entrance door to the baggage claim area.

If you need to pick up a passenger at the Airport, use the free Cell Phone Lot located to the right of the Airport entrance road in front of the Airport Raddison Hotel's parking lot and a minute's drive from the passenger terminal--stay with your car until your party has collected luggage and calls you to be picked up at the curb. Other parking options include: a three-storey parking garage directly across from the passenger terminal with short-term and long-term parking (stay in the left lanes when approaching the Airport and follow signs to short-term parking); the Center Lot A for short-term parking is within walking distance from the terminal, but also offers free shuttle service. Center Lots B & C for long-term parking are adjacent to Lot A. The Economy parking--credit card only--is served by free shuttle bus to/from the terminal (stay in the left lane when approaching the Airport and follow signs to short-term parking). Handicap parking options: Short-term accessible spaces and van accessible spaces are in the three-storey parking garage located on the ground level near the A, B and C passenger walkways, while Long-term accessible spaces and van accessible spaces are located on the lower level along the entire south wall of the garage close to the terminal and on the south ends of the parking rows. These long-term spaces are as close as some of the short-term spaces.

To get from the Airport to your destination, you can rent a car (free telephone stations are in the baggage claim area and connect you to rental car services--all car rental agencies are located outside the terminal); take a taxi or limo; or take a MATA bus service from the lower outer drive near Terminal C, runs the following routes: Route 2--Medical Center Airport (Mon-Sat 6am-7pm); Route 4--Walker Night (Mon-Fri 8pm-midnight; Sun 8am-6pm); Route 32--E. Parkway Airport (Mon-Sat 6am-6pm). For schedules & rates call (901) 274-MATA.

The Airport considers itself as being the first 'aerodropolis', which is an airport-integrated region extending outward from the airport in strings and clusters of airport-linked businesses and their associate residential complexes. At present, plans are being negotiated to build a seven-story International Airport Garage with integrated rental car facilities and moving sidewalks.
