SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 2
WHEREAS, Dallas Fort Worth International Airport was
recognized by Airports Council International with a 2022 ASQ
Award; and
WHEREAS, Established in 2006, the annual ASQ Awards
recognize airports that have demonstrated exceptional customer
service based on survey data; in 2022, DFW Airport was honored as
one of the best airports in North America serving over 40 million
passengers per year; and
WHEREAS, The cities of Dallas and Fort Worth joined
together to open Dallas Fort Worth Regional Airport in 1974; with
the addition of transnational flights, the facility was renamed
Dallas Fort Worth International Airport in 1985; over the
succeeding years, the airport has continued to grow,
establishing its own fire department, emergency medical
services, and police force, and it became the first airport in
the world to open its own emergency room in 2018; and
WHEREAS, Located halfway between Dallas and Fort Worth,
DFW Airport spans around 30 square miles on more than 17,000
acres of land, serving passengers from 168 gates at 5 terminals;
the airport has earned numerous accolades for its exceptional
operations and customer service, and it received a $35 million
grant from the U.S. Department of Transportation to further its
goal of achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2030; and
WHEREAS, Dallas Fort Worth International Airport is
indispensable to the transportation infrastructure of Texas, and
its significant contributions to the Lone Star State and beyond
make it a fitting recipient of this most recent honor; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 88th
Legislature, hereby congratulate Dallas Fort Worth International
Airport on receiving a 2022 ASQ Award from Airports Council
International and extend to all those associated with the airport
sincere best wishes for continued success; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this Resolution be
prepared for DFW Airport as an expression of high regard from the
Texas Senate.
