KMCI Spotting

I went to Kansas City International Airport this Sunday and I wanted to share some of my photos with you guys!


An Alaska Airlines 737-900ER as it is getting ready for its 3 hours and 30 minute flight to Seattle, Washington.

A Dassault Falcon 900EX pulling in to drop off its passengers after a long flight from Providenciales, located in the British overseas territory, The Turks and Caicos Islands.

An American Airlines zooming into the sky for a short 1 hour flight to Dallas

A Southwest 737 flying over an old KLM 747-200? (Correct me if I’m wrong) we have a lot of old planes at KMCI including md11s, dc10s, 747s, and we also have one of the patriots 767s right now!

A Canyon Blue Southwest 737-700 approaching the gate after a 1 hour flight from Indianapolis. I love seeing these old livery’s before they’re gone!

A Delta 757-200 flying over the same old KLM 747 as mentioned above after a flight from Atlanta, Georgia. Fun fact: Delta just started bringing their 757s to Kansas City!

Another photo of the Dassault Falcon 900EX as it was taking off for short 5 minute flight to KMKC, KMKC is located right next to downtown when KMCI is located around 20 minutes from downtown.

A Southwest 737 taxing into the gate before being pushed back 40 minutes later!

Another Southwest 737 taxing into the gate after an hour and a half of flying from Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Bonus picture! I noticed an E4B flying over as I was making this post so I went outside and took this picture, it was at 24,000 feet and I’m unsure where it is going as it is still in the air as I am posting this.

Maybe I will go back to KMCI this weekend and take some photos worth sharing, thanks for viewing!

KLM’s new livery was only implemented on the B744, also the B744 has more doors than it’s smaller B742

Well one side is just normal airport stuff and we have this other side full of old planes, that side is very hard to find information about but I believe they do maintenance and convert cargo to passenger and passenger To cargo

ok, thanks!
