Great news is taking flight at McKinney National Airport (DTX): the facility is making steady progress on its new passenger terminal, and Avelo Airlines has announced it will add service to four more cities from the airport, giving North Texas travelers even more options close to home.
McKinney National Airport recently shared an update on the terminal construction project, signaling that the long-anticipated facility is moving forward on schedule. The new terminal is designed to give passengers a more comfortable and convenient travel experience as the airport continues to grow into a genuine regional hub.
Adding to the excitement, Avelo Airlines — which already serves DTX — announced the expansion of its route network out of McKinney, connecting the community to four additional destinations. The added service means residents of McKinney and the surrounding Collin County area will have more nonstop choices available right in their backyard, reducing the need to navigate the congestion of the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex’s larger airports.
Together, the terminal construction progress and the new Avelo routes paint a promising picture for McKinney’s future as a travel destination and economic engine. A growing airport brings not only convenience for local families and business travelers, but also jobs, commerce, and visibility for the city on a broader map.
McKinney has long been one of the fastest-growing cities in the United States, and developments like these reflect the community’s continued investment in infrastructure that keeps pace with that growth. Whether you’re a frequent flyer or simply proud of your city’s momentum, the news out of DTX is a clear sign that McKinney is heading in the right direction — literally and figuratively.
Stay tuned to McKinney National Airport’s official channels for the latest updates on the terminal timeline and the full list of new Avelo destinations as they are announced.
