Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport has achieved a new, impressive level of service with the introduction of the PHX Sky TrainTM
It was a project not only years in the making, but one that was highly anticipated by members of the community, travellers and the aviation industry. On 8 April 2013, the PHX Sky Train™ opened at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, and has been dazzling community members and travellers alike with its state-of-the-art design and fast connection between Sky Harbor’s busiest terminal, economy parking, and the regional rail system, ever since.
A state-of-the-art ride and facilities
“The PHX Sky Train will forever be known in Phoenix as one of the greatest, most forwardthinking projects of our time,” said City of Phoenix Aviation Director Danny Murphy at the PHX Sky Train’s Grand Opening. “Planned years ago, built today and lasting well into the future, the PHX Sky Train will be a state-of-the art customer service asset.”
