About Tampa International Airport

Tampa International Airport consistently ranks among America’s top airports according to outlets such as J.D. Power & Associates, The Wall Street Journal, Travel + Leisure Magazine and Condé Nast. Known for its efficiency and just a 25-minute drive from downtown St. Petersburg, TPA makes doing business in Tampa Bay easy.

Currently, TPA serves more than 100 destinations nonstop and carries about 25 million passengers annually.

The airport recently broke ground on an additional 16-gate airside, which will bring the airport’s total number of gates to 74 upon completion in late 2028. TPA has always been dedicated to the passenger journey and connecting the Tampa Bay region to the world. The top 10 passenger markets for TPA are New York, Chicago, Atlanta, Boston, Philadelphia, Detroit, Washington, DC, Denver, Dallas, and Baltimore.
