McKinney National Airport (TKI) · North Collin County
McKinney National Airport serves McKinney, Allen, Prosper, and Celina with growing corporate aviation traffic. Every ad-hoc broker marks up your flight 15–30%. FlyRoving Gold Members access the same aircraft at wholesale operator rates, for a flat $399.99/month.
Why McKinney
McKinney is one of the fastest-growing cities in America, and Collin County is one of the wealthiest counties in the DFW metroplex. The airport's 7,002ft runway supports turboprops through midsize jets, serving the booming communities of McKinney, Allen, Prosper, and Celina.
As north Collin County's population and corporate base continue to grow, TKI is positioned to become an increasingly important private aviation facility. For super-midsize and heavy jets, FlyRoving arranges departures from Addison or the broader Dallas market.
