Passenger service planned for McKinney airport

by | Jul 10, 2025 | Area news, Latest

McKinney National Airport is adding a commercial passenger terminal on the opposite side of the airport from the current McKinney Air Center.

As work begins on a $72 million expansion of McKinney National Airport, an “ultra low-cost” airline based in Houston reportedly is considering adding the airport to its more than 50 destinations in the U.S. and Latin America.

Avelo (rhymes with yellow) Airlines began service earlier this year between Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and Tweed New Haven Airport in Connecticut.

WFAA had filed public information requests seeking information about airlines that might serve the McKinney airport and in June received a letter from the Texas Attorney General’s office saying the information must be divulged.
