The terminal also offers shops, passenger waiting areas and other amenities beyond security, with pedestrian access to the departure gates in both concourses.
️ Distinctive featureNorthwest Arkansas National Airport was developed as a regional airport project involving five cities and two counties: Bentonville, Fayetteville, Rogers, Siloam Springs and Springdale, together with Benton and Washington counties.
Commercial operations began on November 1, 1998. The airport was designed to provide shared air transportation infrastructure for a growing region made up of several cities rather than serving a single urban center. Its ceremonial dedication took place on November 6, 1998, with President Bill Clinton in attendance.
