About this hub

Local flavor, community ops, and hub identity.
Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport, located near Detroit, Michigan, in Wayne County, serves as Delta Air Lines' second-largest hub. It is the primary gateway to Asia for the Eastern United States and Delta's third-busiest gateway to Europe. Originally established in 1929, the airport has a rich history and was known as Romulus Field during World War II, a fun nod for trekkies. KDTW is a major hub for domestic and international travel, offering world-class facilities and connections to destinations worldwide.
Fun fact
Detroit's McNamara Terminal also boasts one of the longest airport terminals in the world at 1 mile long! Thankfully, it has an indoor tram to shuttle passengers across its length, but you can always skip the tram and get your steps in!
