Kansas City International Airport mci address

Each of the terminals is shaped as open circles around a circle road with entrances and exits in the inner area and a parking garage in the middle of the circle.

The airport currently has two existing passenger terminals in operation, Terminal B and C, with a new Terminal A on the way. The airport was built after the Great Flood in 1951 after it destroyed the hometown airlines’ facilities and ground was broken in September 1954 with the first runway opening in 1956 around the same time as Kansas City donated their other airport, then known as Grandview Airport, to the United States Air Force. Kansas City has requested to change the IATA code to KCI to end confusion, but as MCI has been used in navigational charts and it is already in use for Kon Airport in East Timor it has been denied. The airport is owned and operated by the Kansas City Aviation Department and it serves the Kansas City metropolitan area.

The airport was originally named Mid-Continent International Airport and was given the IATA code MCI, which makes it confusing for travelers since it’s mostly referred to as KCI. Kansas City International Airport, also known as Kansas City Airport or simply KCI, is a public airport located 24 km/15 mi northwest of downtown Kansas City, Missouri, USA.
