- Before getting my bags, I thought I would do a full lap on the SkyLink tram. Skylink trains run every two minutes and travel at speeds up to 35-37 mph (56-60 km/h). The Skylink system uses a total of 64 Bombardier Innovia APM 200 vehicles, coupled together into two car trains.

I was on this tramway back in 2013 and I had the most magical experience, due to it being odd hours during a slow time. I had the whole thing to myself all the way around and witnessed an awesome sunrise as I came to my exit. It was like I was traveling alone in my own sanctuary for that brief period of time.
Nice that you had it all to yourself. Thank you for watching.
It would be appropriate to say that Sky Link travels in 2 directions. I have almost missed my flight for traveling in the opposite direction. For example: if I need to go from terminal B to terminal A, You have to take the inside line, otherwise you will take much longer to get to terminal A. Study the airport diagram before you leave home, so you know in which direction to go. Good Travels!
Never thought about saying that the sky link ran in two different directions. If you take the wrong one. You could miss your flight. Thank you for watching.
I'm a Fort Worth native and refer to it as the Ft. Worth/Dallas airport since the bulk of the airport is inside the Ft. Worth city limits and Tarrant county along with American Airlines World Headquarters. If people are exiting to the south going to Dallas they have to go through the city of Irving before the Dallas city limits.
Thanks for the info. I worked for AA there for 2 yrs. Thank you for watching.
Actually none of DFW airport is within FW city limits.
I WENT TOO THIS AIRPORT
Very busy airport. Thank you for watching.
For someone trying to get from terminal c to d would you recommend skylink or the terminal link?
I Would take the Skylink. It moves pretty fast. Plus the D terminal is on the other side of the airport. So less of a problem going with the terminal link. Thank you for watching.
@@MarkTheLostTravelerwith Terminal Link you have to exit the secure side so would have to go through security again.
@@maryleejohnson8168 No because you already went through security. Thank you for watching.

post security, the train is considered in security
@@modernwonder 👍👍 thanks man
I love that you can see various planes take off and land while on the Skylink.
Yes, that’s pretty cool. Thank you for watching.

Nobody going to mention how rough the ride is? It’s like riding a rollercoaster while trying to hold luggage. And somehow the straight sections aren’t smooth either.
You have a good point. Thank you for watching
We’ll be doing this on our 4 hour layover next month. Thanks for the preview.
Thank you for posting. I never have much time to spend exploring DFW, so it was fun to see the entire trip around.
There is a lot to see if that airport. Oh, thank you for watching
One of my favorite airport train systems. DFW is an enormous airport, but this system means you can get from any part of it to any other part of it in 10 minutes or less. Incidentally the train system that came before Skylink, Airtrans, was even bigger - it had 5 lines serving 33 stations! But it was only one direction, much slower, and all but one of the lines were outside the secure area, so it was much less practical for getting around. I'm old enough to have ridden that system too.
I Worked there when they had the old system...Thank you for watching
I like the skylink I went on it when I was at the DFW Airport
Nice system and it beats long walks to the gates. Thank you for watching.
Heck of a ride around the airport. I hope your luggage was there.
Yes it was. Thanks for watching.
It would have been nice if you would show the gates numbers as they are coming off of the train
Sorry didn't think about that. Maybe next time. Thank you for watching.
