Detroit Metro Wayne County Airport
Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport is a major hub for Delta Air Lines and one of the busiest airports in the Midwest. DTW handles around 34 million passengers per year and sits about 20 miles southwest of downtown Detroit. Delta operates its third-largest hub at DTW, handling extensive international service to Europe and Asia plus a dense domestic connecting network. The airport's international operation is particularly focused on transpacific flights, with direct service to Tokyo, Seoul, Shanghai, and Beijing. DTW's McNamara Terminal is one of the largest single-airline terminals in the world, serving entirely as Delta's hub operation. The airport handles a mix of legacy Delta routes and newer routes added after the Northwest Airlines merger in 2008. Detroit's geographic position makes it a natural connecting point for passengers between the eastern and western United States and for transatlantic flights that benefit from more northern routing. The airport has been expanding its international gate capacity to handle growth in Asian traffic.
