Airports with the Longest Walks to Gates

Want to get your steps in? There are some airports in the US, where getting to your gate or switching terminals will give you the longest walks. 
 
So which airports are the biggest offenders? 
 
At Washington Dulles, you can walk as much as 1.6 miles to get to your plane. 
 
Houston Intercontinental could set you back more than a mile and a half. 
 
And the longest walk? That would be Dallas-Fort Worth, where you could hike more than 2.1 miles to get to your gate. 

 

And the shortest walk at an airport is the Bluegrass Airport in Lexington, Kentucky. It’s a mere tenth of a mile.
