Thank goodness for Skylink!…read more If you ever traveled through Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) you would be amazed at the shear size of this airport. This morning when I was catching my flight home, I swear my flight was leaving from Terminal C, but when I checked in at American Airlines at DFW, my actual flight was leaving from Terminal A. What to do??? Skylink my friends....... Just watch for the signs within the airport terminal for the Skylink, take the escalator up to the top of the airport terminal and jump on the orange rail thingy. The Skylink rail car does have a few seats, but it's mostly for riders to stand. Using Skylink rail is a very convenient way to get around this massive airport, especially if you're in a rush to navigate between the airport terminals.

My wife suggested that we go to the Grapevine Vintage Railroad, and took the short ride which is…read morethe Grapevine Bear Creek Short Line which took about approximately an hour or so. They had this young lady who called herself a cowgirl and lead the group on a sing-along and we truly enjoyed it. The first class seats are actually more comfortable that the economy seats, and my wife and I and two other ladies were the only ones on the first class car. Would I go again.....can't say that I won't and can't say that I well. The young man working our area, Nick was a really nice young man, and was very knowledgeable when it came to trains. My wife had a snack on the train which consisted of, a candy bar, small bag of chips, and two soda pops total $7.00 and of course the picture was to commemorate the trip was $15.00 and they take case only for the picture. Regardless of all this, we truly enjoyed it.

Recently visited Dallas and went through the Fort Worth International Airport.. super awesome…read moreairport.. looked very neat, clean and huge.. security clearance and other things were really quick.. lots of restaurants and shops on the way to the terminal.. Rental car facility is slightly far, but there were buses to the facility.. takes about 10 minutes from the airport.. in hot summer it's really difficult to stand outside for the bus to go to the rental.. when I visited it was about 100F and had to stand out for 10'mins not knowing when the bus will arrive . Baggage carousel is good and just outside the exit . Good experience overall . The only issue with this airport is we had to pay a charge to get into the airport, even if we had to just drop somebody on the departure.. although it's not too expensive I wish they just made it free.. costed bout 3$ but had to pay every time if we are going inside the airport.. never saw that with any airports in New York New Jersey area..

This was my first time traveling through this airport, and surprisingly, it was very easy to…read morenavigate. There are plenty of shops and restaurants available, which makes it easy to pass the time while waiting for your flight. One thing to note is that there is limited seating available at some boarding gates. Because of this, many passengers line up near the gate area, which can make the walkways and surrounding areas feel very congested when trying to move between gates. Overall, it was a convenient airport to navigate, with plenty of options for dining and shopping.

You can ride a tram over to other terminals, and then walk over to the Dart train if you can follow the random signs that point you down hallways and corridors that end in a dead end. They need to do a better job marking stuff. At least the bathrooms were clean.

The DART is clean, safe, quick, has extensive coverage, and comfortable. Every time I've ridden there was a cop at least part of the way. I would look at a map before you arrive and before you leave. If you're young you might have someone old show you what I mean by "looking at a map," and if you're old like me, have someone younger show you how to use Google maps- public transportation on your phone.

It's a short walk from the A-1 end of the A terminal, just go downstairs on the elevator from baggage claim and follow the signs. It is highly likely that the fare machines won't work - it's been about 50/50. The train is modern but the seats are hard. It tends to provide shelter for many homeless on occasion; I've never had an issue but there are usually some disconcerting folks aboard. If you have to transfer try not to do it at one of the downtown stops - they are sketchey at best. Even if you have to overshoot by a stop or 2 and double back you'll feel safer. It's a metro area public transportation system - there are worse. Just keep aware of your surroundings and don't travel late night.
