Changing terminals at Dallas-Fort Worth airport (DFW)
Landing in Terminal 1, taking off one hour later from Terminal 3. With only a one hour layover, will I have enough time to change terminals?
Best Answer
DFW does not use numbers for terminals. DFW uses letters. So....
Presuming you mean Terminal A to Terminal C, yes. If, almost certainly, American Airlines sold that itinerary as a single ticket, they expect you to make it and from experience, yes, it is enough time.
As soon as you enter the terminal, look for the SkyTrain signs. Terminal C is the next terminal in the inner loop.
If you require mobility assistance, you can arrange that prior to departing for DFW.

Depending on arrival/departure gates the walk between terminals could be anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes. Instead, take the SkyLink Tram.

Re: Is a 1 hour layover enough? If the first flight is on time, there should be no problem. DFW airport has shuttles running through all the terminals doing a circle. And typically if the next flight knows your previous flight has landed, and they do, they will hold the gate open if you are slightly late.Skylink The Quick and Easy Link Between Terminals, Dallas, USA
