The largest airport serving the Llano Estacado is the Lubbock Preston Smith International Airport, a medium sized airport 5 mi 8 km north of downtown that has daily flights to and from most of the major hub airports throughout the United States. Air travel to Lubbock will most likely require a connecting flight in Dallas or Houston, as there are few direct flights, although Southwest has nonstop flights to Las Vegas, Albuquerque, El Paso, and Austin, as well as Dallas.
