Less than a week before the first commercial passenger service flight takes off at McKinney National Airport, officials gathered to celebrate the opening and welcome community members into the facility.

What happened: A Nov. 6 community preview event featured a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the terminal, as well as ceremonies marking the completion of two murals at the facility. City leaders and community members toured the completed facility, which has been under construction since mid-2025.

What they’re saying: McKinney National Airport Director Ken Carley called the milestone “a new chapter” for the airport, which has been a “thriving general aviation airport for decades,” he said.

McKinney Mayor Bill Cox said every city department has had a hand in the planning of the airport terminal, highlighting the airport team’s planning efforts as well as the contributions of Assistant City Manager Barry Shelton.

“This is one of those legacy projects that we are proud of, not only as a city, but as a region,” Cox said. “This commercial terminal is bigger than McKinney.”
