Kansas City, Missouri<br />

Kansas City International Airport is a<br />

key regional facility serving the Kansas<br />

City metro area.<br />

The low congestion and small number of<br />

flight delays have long established it as one<br />

of the most appealing and user-friendly<br />

commercial airports in the world.<br />

Most of the major domestic airlines have<br />

flights to their hubs, with some point-to-point<br />

service from low-cost carriers Southwest<br />

Airlines and Frontier Airlines. Scheduled<br />

international service is offered to Cancun,<br />

Mexico, and Toronto, Canada.<br />

Voters have recently approved the<br />

construction of a new terminal complex at the<br />

airport. The project is currently under design<br />

and is expected to be completed in 2023.<br />

There is no rail-based transit from the<br />

airport to Kansas City. There is a public bus<br />

line with a 42-minute travel time from the<br />

airport to the downtown area. The airport<br />

is linked by highway to downtown Kansas City<br />

and the proposed stadium.<br />

Within 80 km, there are no other airports<br />

with commercial service. There are four<br />

airports capable of receiving airliner-class<br />

aircraft, and an additional six that can<br />

accommodate corporate jets.<br />
