About
Arriving at Memphis International Airport
Memphis International is best known as FedEx's global superhub, but the passenger side of the airport is surprisingly quiet and efficient. Most commercial flights operate from Terminal B with two concourses, and the manageable size means short walks to baggage claim.
The airport sits just off I-240 and I-55, making it accessible from all parts of the Memphis metro area. With lower passenger volumes, the arrivals curb rarely gets congested. A landing alert helps you time the drive from downtown or the surrounding suburbs.
Pickup tip
MEM is 10 miles southeast of downtown Memphis. The airport is uncrowded and passengers exit quickly. Wait for a landing text, then take I-240 to the airport.
