Airport Maps & Terminal Guide

The passenger terminal complex at Dallas International Airport consists of five terminals - A through E (D is the international terminal). Each of the five terminals, together with their parking facility, form a half circle, with the parking area facing the one-way roads of the International Parkway in the center. As shown in the Dallas Fort Worth airport map,

Terminals A & B face each other - connected by a walkway, as well as terminals C & D (Terminal D has actually a square layout). Terminal E is south of Terminal C, but is not connected by walkway to the other terminals. All amenities and services (food, drink, stores...) are located in the boarding area near their respective gates. Free AT&T Wi-Fi Hotspots are located throughout the Terminal. To rest & refresh between flights, DFW offers at terminals A & D, nine 'Minute Suites' with shower facilities.

  • Non-American Airline passengers with only carry-on bags may use a multi-airline kiosk (in elevator vestibule at TA) to check in for their flight.
  • Passengers of airlines other than American with bags to check in may use the Terminal Link shuttle bus outside to get to their connecting terminal.

    There is an off-site DFW car rental center served by the rental car shuttle bus, which stops at each terminal.

International Arrivals & Transfers

Unless you have gone through US customs clearance by participating airports, you need to go through passport check, retrieve checked bags, go through customs clearance and - if transferring to another flight - re-check-in bags. The Skylink at post-security gets you to your connecting flight - or use the walkway between A, B, C & D gates (E gates are not connected by walkway).

The three gates in the corridor connecting Terminals D & B are swing gates, enabling international passengers to proceed directly upstairs to the Customs Hall via the 2-level corridor between terminals D & B.

Security Checkpoints

Aside from Global Entry & TSA Pre-Check - the following three additions have been speeding up the process considerably:

  • Currently over 70 percent of international arrivals (US citizens & green-card holders, Canadians, citizens of Visa waiver countries), will use the 51 APC's (automated passport control) processing machines).
  • 'carry-on bags only' passengers may use the 'Carry E-Z' green lines in the International Arrivals Hall.
  • CBP baggage claim expanded to 13 positions, and the Terminal D22 checkpoint is adding 2 more lanes.
  • TSA Checkpoint Locations: A10, A21, B9, B30, C10, C21, C30, D18, D22, D30, E16, E18, E33. CLEAR at E33: CLEAR members bypass long lines going straight to screening.
