Kansas City International Airport Travel FAQs

There are two airports in Kansas City. The primary, larger airport is Kansas City International Airport (MCI). The second airport is the Kansas City Wheeler Downtown Airport (MKC), which handles corporate, charter, and private recreational flights. (Source)

Yes. The Kansas City International Airport’s official airport code is MCI. However, many locals and travelers commonly mistake the airport code for KCI. (Source) The airport has never used the KCI airport code, as U.S. airports can’t use the letters K, N, or W as the first letter of their airport code. (Source)

Yes, you can sleep overnight at MCI in landside areas. However, you’ll need to pass through security checkpoints again once they open in the morning, and comfortable seating in quiet spots can be limited. (Source)

It’s about 19 miles from the Kansas City International Airport and downtown Kansas City. After picking up your Budget car rental at the airport, it will likely take you between 25 and 30 minutes to drive to the downtown area, depending on current traffic and your route. (Source)
