McKinney National Airport (KTKI) is a city-owned business-aviation airport located about two miles southeast of downtown McKinney, on the northern edge of the Dallas-Fort Worth Class B environment. It serves as an important corporate and general-aviation reliever for Collin County and North Texas.
Runway 18/36 measures 7,502 feet by 150 feet. KTKI also offers an air traffic control tower, precision and RNAV instrument approaches, on-site U.S. Customs, ARFF capability, and extensive hangar and ramp infrastructure. The airport is continuing a major program of development to support future aviation demand.
For Air Direct, KTKI provides ample runway capability for Citation Excel operations. As with every flight, actual takeoff and landing performance is evaluated for aircraft weight, weather, runway condition, obstacles, and other operating factors applicable to the trip.
McKinney Air Center, the city-owned FBO at KTKI, operates a modern terminal and supports visiting business aircraft with Jet-A, line service, transient hangar space, GPU service, crew cars, catering, baggage handling, and flight planning.
Crew amenities include a private lounge, conference room, Wi-Fi, showers, and courtesy transportation. On-site U.S. Customs is another useful advantage for appropriately coordinated international arrivals.
Air Direct has operated under FAA Part 135 since 2002 and is based at Cox Field (KPRX) in Paris, Texas, approximately a 15-minute flight from KTKI under typical conditions. That makes McKinney a practical part of our regional charter service area.
When you book with Air Direct, you are working directly with the air carrier operating your flight. We own and operate Citation Excel N560AD, provide our own qualified flight crews, and manage your trip from the initial quote through completion of the flight.
Midsize comfort, useful capability, and complimentary Starlink Wi-Fi.
N560AD offers a spacious midsize cabin with seating for up to nine passengers, a private aft lavatory, fold-out work tables, passenger power outlets, and room to stand and move about during flight.
The Citation Excel's large external baggage compartment makes N560AD well suited for business luggage, family trips, golf equipment, ski gear, and other trips where baggage capacity matters.
Complimentary Starlink Wi-Fi lets you stay connected for work, communication, or entertainment while you travel.
McKinney combines a rapidly growing Collin County business environment with one of Texas's best-preserved historic downtowns. The downtown district features more than 120 locally owned businesses set among preserved 19th-century architecture, restaurants, galleries, and public spaces.
That mix makes KTKI useful for more than one kind of trip: corporate travel into the north Dallas business corridor, meetings throughout Collin County, visits to downtown McKinney, and personal travel to communities across the rapidly growing northern Metroplex.
Private travel built around McKinney and your schedule.
KTKI is well positioned for McKinney, Collin County, and the northern Dallas-Fort Worth business corridor without requiring a trip through a major airline terminal.
A 7,502-foot runway, tower, instrument approaches, U.S. Customs, ARFF, and a modern city-owned FBO make KTKI a highly capable corporate aviation airport.
