ON AIRPORT GROUNDS
Tollbooths:
Drivers
are not charged a toll when entering the airport grounds, but are charged
when leaving.
Passkey:
Easy entrance and exit of airport grounds for frequent users. Call 888-269-2811. Or click www.passkey.net.
Smile for the camera:
As you drive through the entry tollbooth, a camera shoots a nearly instantaneous
photo of your cars license plate. The booth attendant keys in the license
plate number and time of entry, this information appears on the ticket
stub and determines the amount owed. This can serve as validation in case
of a lost tollbooth ticket; however, there is a $10 surcharge for all
lost tickets.
Driving tip:
The
winding airport roads to the terminals twist and turn in figure eights
and can be confusing, to say the least. Watch the signs carefully. If
you miss a turn or get on the wrong track, allow 10 minutes to find your
way back to the same spot. Everything at D-FW eventually is circular, but
because of the layout you have to use the long north-south International
Parkway and then find a U-turn near one of the two big exit plazas. Tip
is to not miss your turn.
Note: All roads on airport
grounds are one-way and all exits are to the left.
