El Paso International Airport provides first-class
passenger and air cargo service to the three-state and two
nation region, including West Texas, Southern New Mexico and
Northern Mexico. Encompassing nearly 7,000 acres of land, the
airport plays a vital role in the regional transportation
system, not only for aviation and airline passenger travel,
but also for industrial, commercial, and cargo activity.
With eight airlines providing sixty four daily flights and a
central location with non-stop service to eight of the
nation’s ten largest connecting hubs, any major destination in
the world is one stop away from El Paso. The abundance of air
service also provides not only a choice of airline and hub
service, but also offers the consumer a wide range of fare
options. |
The airport is continuing to develop the border’s premier
integrated air cargo and business center. A new Science and Technology
Park has been designed for 150 acres east of Global Reach Drive and
south of George Perry Drive. This development will complement existing
industrial development and nearby cargo facilities. This new unit
provides much needed industrial capacity at the airport complex, as
well as commercial and retail opportunities, with the ability to serve
the nearby expansion of Fort Bliss.
Butterfield Trail Golf Course is part of an overall development
plan, including industrial, commercial and retail uses. Adjacent to
Butterfield Trail Golf Club, a nine to fifteen acre site has been
reserved for El Paso’s first resort hotel. This unique opportunity is
offered to any entity with a well-known resort brand with strong
financial management experience, and the capacity to build and manage
a resort-style hotel with conference facilities.
El Paso International Airport is committed to capitalizing on our
geographical and demographic advantages by providing our community
with the best possible air transportation facilities. El Paso's unique
location, transportation facilities, and workforce give the city a
strong advantage in its historical role as the primary transportation
center between the U.S. and Mexico.
