The Sky Harbour Airport is located three miles from the Central Business District of Phoenix and is Arizona’s main international airport. Impressive in scale, it is also the ninth busiest airport in terms of passenger traffic. The airport serves more than 100,000 passengers a day and records an average of 1,500 flights per day.

The airport itself consists of three terminals despite their names being terminals 2, 3, and 4. An original terminal that was named Terminal 1 was demolished but the other terminals were never renamed. The terminals themselves are extremely large and were constructed at an immense cost as is typical with state of the art airport facilities, but the terminals do ensure that visitors have all the amenities and comforts while traveling.

The terminals themselves are also spacious and feature a range of the latest technology that serves to ensure that those who pass through have a comfortable experience at the airport. Visitors to the airport travel between the terminals via the free shuttle bus service that is provided.

The airport also features various shops that present visitors with a range of items. Everything from news items, souvenirs, sunglasses and watches, golf accessories and more can all be found throughout the different terminals. A large offering of varied dining options are also on offer presenting everything from small eateries to proper restaurants.

Phoenix Sky Harbour Airport also houses a museum that offers a variety of different artworks and sculptures to be viewed. One of the largest airport museums in the United States, it serves to showcase a unique offering of Arizona’s culture and heritage. This museum is not some after thought that was added in at a later date but actually spans six different buildings at three different airports. The airport itself is spread out over three locations in the Phoenix area and has branches at Deer Valley and Goodyear. As a result the museum also has two sub branches at both of these auxiliary airports.

Currently the airports collection includes a large and impressive range of art that consists of more than 500 pieces of artwork. The museum’s goal is to showcase the spirit of Arizona through the various paintings that are displayed here and with a collection that is ever increasing even the most ardent art critic will not be disappointed. In addition to its permanent collection the museum also hosts exhibitions that feature various visiting pieces of art brought in from other museums.

Staying in a Phoenix, Arizona hotel that is located close to the airport such as Millennium Resort Scottsdale McCormick Ranch provides guests added convenience. The hotel also provides a range of facilities and amenities that ensure guests of a comfortable and relaxing stay in Arizona.
