Media Guide for Des Moines International Airport

DSM is proud to assist local and national news media organizations with information to communicate to the traveling public.

Click here to view DSM's news and press releases. Recent airport statistics are available there as well.

Notifying DSM

To ensure smooth operations, media representatives should notify the DSM Communications Manager via email or phone listed below before arriving at the airport.

News media have unescorted access to all non-secure areas, including the terminal lobby and hallways before security screening checkpoints, as well as DSM parking lots, garages and any other outdoor public space. Media must not obstruct public access to TSA, ticket counters, gates, baggage claim, or other terminal areas.

Areas leased by airlines and other tenants such as ticket counters, private offices, stores and restaurants, are controlled by those specific businesses, and media access to these spaces requires prior approval from the respective tenant.
