St. Louis Airport Information

St. Louis - Lambert-St. Louis International Airport

Lambert -St. Louis International Airport is perhaps one of the most historic airports in the United States. It was here that Theodore Roosevelt became the first American President to take a plane flight. The field was also the location of the world's first parachute jump. Developed in 1920 by Major Lambert, the airbase at Kinloch Field became the first municipal airport in the United States in 1928. A beautiful mural documenting the history of U.S. aviation is on display in the Main Terminal along with Col. Charles Lindbergh's personal Monocoupe plane, which hangs over the terminal's lower level.

St Louis International Airport uses two terminals, the Main Terminal and the East Terminal. Each serves several airlines and a large number of destinations. The terminals are divided into various concourses, A through to E with each having a variety of restaurants, bars, newsstands and shops. Business services, banks and ATMs are also available.

St Louis International Airport is served by most major car rental firms. Connected to the airport terminals by frequent free shuttle buses, the car rental companies have booths located on the lower level in the Main Terminal.

Lambert operates short term, intermediate and disabled passenger parking. Long term parking is located off the airport and this is connected by a free shuttle bus to both terminals. In all lots, parking for over 24 hours is pro-rated. For more parking information, please call (314) 890-2800.
