- TUS Airport Overview
Tucson International TUS Airport is situated twelve miles south of Tucson, Arizona, 110 miles south of metropolitan Phoenix, and 60 miles north of the Mexican border, in a high desert valley surrounded by mountains. If you come from Downtown or the University of Arizona, take Campbell Ave., which turns into Kino Parkway south of Broadway; then follow road signs to Benson Highway leading to Tucson Blvd. and the airport entrance. With three runways, Tuscon Airport is the second-largest airport in Arizona and an economical alternative to Sky Harbor Airport. Several major and low-cost airlines currently serve the airport, providing nonstop service to major US cities with connections around the world. 4.2 million passengers were counted in 2008.
Tuscon Airport's passenger terminal consists of a lower baggage claim level and an upper ticketing level connecting to Concourses A & B. The following amenities are available at the Airport: Airport Ambassadors, shops and restaurants, ATM machines, wireless internet throughout the terminal, fax & photocopying, meeting rooms and catering, TDD phones and accessisble resrooms and shuttles, luggage carts, massage chairs and shoeshine service. For pet owners the airport has now a relief area outside the terminal.
If you need to pick up a passenger at the Airport, use the free TIA Cell Phone Waiting lot on Airport Drive, off the entrance roadway to the terminal, between S. Plumer and S. Tucson Blvd. Stay with your car until our party has collected luggage and calls you for pick-up at the curb. Other parking options are: The Parking Garage next to the terminal (which also houses rental car faclities), an Hourly Parking Lot in front of the terminal, a Daily Parking Lot right behind it, and two Economy Lots on Corona Road, one of which is covered, and a free shuttle serving both of them. EasyPay stations and express exit lanes are available--automated pay parking stations are outside the baggage claim area and near the elevators inside the parking garage, accepting credit/debit cards, and affording quick exit from parking lots.
To get from the Airport to your destination, you can rent a car, take a taxi or use the Arizona Stagecoach offering shared-ride van service for each arriving flight; hotel shuttles are available, and SunTran buses run every hour.
