Location

Salt Lake City, United States

Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC) is the primary commercial airport serving Salt Lake City, Utah, and the broader Intermountain West region. Situated approximately three miles west of downtown Salt Lake City, it handles tens of millions of passengers annually and serves as a major connecting hub. The airport underwent a massive, phased redevelopment program known as the New SLC, which began opening in September 2020. This project replaced aging Cold War-era terminals with a modern, single-terminal complex designed to improve passenger flow, efficiency, and earthquake resilience. Delta Air Lines operates a significant hub at SLC, making it one of the airline's key domestic and international gateways. The airport's central location and high elevation make it a convenient connection point between the East and West coasts of the United States.

Terminals

The airport features a single modern terminal building with two concourses, A and B, opened as part of the New SLC redevelopment completed in phases starting in 2020.

Getting to & from

TRAX light rail (Red Line) connects the airport directly to downtown Salt Lake City and the broader metro area, with additional options including taxis, rideshare services, and rental cars.
