SANTA FE AIRPORT has arrived in the 21st Century with airport terminal news worthy of your arrivals and departures. Of course, there were construction delays so a 2023 completion date became a late 2024-2025 date. That said, we are grateful for the new “peachy airport parking,” a new saf airport terminal footprint with additional gates, seating, and baggage claim, as well as an improved check-in area and coffee-snack shop. We have already outgrown the expansion, with the promise of over 400,000 visitors in the very near future for flights to Santa Fe.
There are currently twelve Santa Fe flights per day departing from SAF to four destinations.
Denver – United Airlines
Los Angeles – American Airlines
Phoenix – American Airlines
Dallas – Fort Worth – American Airlines
Houston – United Airlines
FYI…..for American Airlines, be sure and check the American Airlines personal item size, American Airlines baggage policy, American Airlines baggage weight— to decide whether or not to check bag and American flight status.
FYI….for United Airlines, you may want to use the United Airlines login and United site services to find United flights, United Airlines flight emergency landing, United Airlines carry on size, United Airlines baggage claim, or information on the United Airlines wireless internet.
Everyone’s a VIP at Fly Santa Fe when it comes to Santa Fe Airport parking! Easy access to the terminal, with no stairs, escalators, or elevators to deal with, makes your time-to-gate exceptionally short.
The Santa Fe Regional Airport offers convenient and affordable long-term parking and short-term parking, steps away from the terminal. A flat prepaid fee of $7.00 a day is charged in all lots, with the first 30 minutes free. Parking in disabled spots is available and conveniently located across from the terminal.
The Santa Fe Airport was originally a military airfield in 1941. There were reports of renovations in 1974 for safety reasons, which actually led to the current reconstruction. In March 2022, the project broke ground, marking a positive shift in the airport perceptiveness. We bid a fond farewell to our quaintly adobe terminal and did a meet and greet of a new, all-modern building.
Fortunately, airports in New Mexico have recently received several funding grants, which will bring us into the next proposed phase of construction.
The Santa Fe Regional Airport currently has 12 daily departures and more arrivals. When the airlines research new routes, they are looking for carrying capacity. This is an aspect where the Santa Fe Airport has performed well with increasing use, especially since the recent expansion met final completion.
The future is bright for the City Different,

Travel and Leisure Named Santa Fe as the No. 1 Destination in the United States
Transportation to and from the airport is a priority for improvement. There are new taxi and rider share stands and companies. We want to provide accommodating transport from the Santa Fe Airport to hotels in Santa Fe and Santa Fe vacation rentals that ease travel arrangements to the exceptional Santa Fe.
Security updates were essential, and cameras have been installed in the parking lots for an ongoing security upgrade.
The future includes a new terminal, incorporating the building currently used by FBO, Signature Aviation. There will be a new direct route to Hwy 599, minus the current views of old cars — but that is a Santa Fe thing. It wouldn’t be a real airport without an airport restaurant and gift shop, so that is also on the agenda. The Santa Fe Airport is operating at about 50% the Albuquerque capacity. All considered, the Santa Fe Airport is in a positive mode.
