Car Hire Detroit Airport - Mini guide to Detroit Airport
DTW is located 20 miles southwest of Detroit. Last year, the Edward N. McNamara Terminal was opened at Wayne County's Detroit Metropolitan Airport, signalling the end of Detroit’s airport ratings languishing amongst the lowest in the United States. The changes were dramatic and the airport facilities and efficiency are much improved.
DTW has three passenger terminals. The McNamara Terminal serves a host of major international airline companies between its three concourses: A, B, and C. The mile-long Concourse A has moving walkways and an overhead tram. An underground tunnel links A to concourses B and C.
All other airlines use the L.C. Smith Terminal. The Berry Terminal is now used solely for charter flights. The terminals are connected via free shuttle buses.
ATMs are located in all terminals, while exchange bureaux can be found in the Smith, Berry and McNamara terminals. A postbox is also located in the McNamara terminal.
Luggage carts can be found throughout the airport at a cost of $2 and above. There are also snack shops post-security on the concourses, and airport shower services. In the Smith Terminal you'll find a tequila theme restaurant bar called The José Cuervo Tequilería. The McNamara terminal has the widest selection of shops and restaurants.
Conference facilities are provided by the Westlin hotel located near the McNamara terminal, and also by the Detroit Airport Marriott.
Disabled facilities are widely available, including wheelchair accessibility and special parking spaces. AMPCO parking services recommend calling (+1) 800 642 1978 in advance, to receive full instructions. Shuttle vehicles that accommodate wheelchairs, are available to transfer passengers from the economy car parks to the terminal buildings.
Helpdesks are located throughout the terminals and are complimented by a fleet of green-jacketed customer service representatives.
