How delays work at TUL

A ground stop holds flights bound for TUL at their origin airports. A ground delay program spaces arrivals out so the airport is not overloaded. Departure and arrival delay messages describe the average wait the FAA expects. None of these tell you whether your own flight is late, so always check your airline as well.

Local tips

  • Economy at $9 per day with a shuttle is the best value for trips of several days.
  • Confirm valet pricing with the airport before you book, since the parking page and rate schedule do not match.
  • If you are flying overnight, plan to stay landside after the last flight, since the checkpoint closes overnight.
  • Use the free hotel shuttle from the Hilton Garden Inn or Home2 Suites, and check shuttle times before you book.
  • Use the self-service check-in machines near the checkpoint to save time at the counter.
