I don't know where some people get that idea?? A small arm of Fort Worth borders the Airport on the southwest, but that is it. The huge airport is mostly surrounded by suburban cities like Euless, Grapevine and Irving. Also, surrounding the airport is not the same as it being in the cities itself. The cities of Dallas and Fort Worth both own the airport, the airport takes the address of DFW Airport, and it lies in both Dallas and Tarrant counties.

I suggest therapy and psychotropic medication. Bra, there's a Dallas vs. Fort Worth Anonymous group in Flower Mound you should try. EM me for details...

More importantly, who really cares?

DFW is here to serve the North Texas reigion including all of the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

I live in Dallas, but does the fact that DFW lies in Fort Worth, Euless, Grapevine, etc. make me not want to use DFW? Absolutely not.

DFW does not lie in Fort Worth, neither does it lie in Euless, Grapevine, etc. It is in both Dallas and Tarrant counties and it has a DFW Airport address. Can't you READ??

For the average joe flying into DFW for a stopover... no one cares what town it's in. It's called the Dallas/ Fort Worth airport ... good enough for me. In the scheme of things it's not going to change anyone's life is it?

Someone said DFW was in Fort Worth earlier and used it as an advantage for Fort Worth when the airport is not even in Fort Worth.

you might want to do that in the thread it happened instead of starting a whole new thread that basically makes you look like you are just spouting off about it in general....

Ft Worth City limits go up to the south service area of the airport and includes part of the service area.

DFW Airport is about 65-70% in Tarrant County Maybe 30% in Dallas County and a small tab of maybe 2% in Denton County.
