About Frontiers of Flight Museum

This Dallas museum focuses on aviation and space history and sits on the southeast side of Love Field. It began in 1988 inside an airport terminal and later moved into a much larger building of about 100,000 square feet. The museum holds an affiliation with the Smithsonian and offers exhibits, a coffee lounge called Jetsetters, event rentals, and educator programs. Visitors can park for free and borrow wheelchairs on a first-come basis.
