How do I know which terminal for my flight at DFW?
Am flying into DFW on American Airlines and connecting to another AA flight to Houston. Problem is, which terminal? AA services 3 terminals at DFW and my particular flights, both of them, are actually American Eagle, which services an additional 2 terminals. Which of the 5 terminals do I use? It is not on my e-ticket. As I have never been to DFW and this is only my second time flying, I'm not sure where this information would be. Any help is appreciated.

You can ask a person who is working at the gate when you leave your first flight. DFW isn't that hard to navigate (i've been through there several times). When in doubt, ask. They won't bite, i promise. I've always asked just in case, so i know where i'm going.

DFW is one of my favorite airports! There are plenty of volunteers walking about you can ask or check the info boards. Once you know the correct terminal and gate, jump on the Skylink fir an easy trip to your correct terminal.

Though the bulk of American Eagle flights at DFW go into the B terminal, there are some Eagle flights that will go out of different terminals. You can go to the AA website the day before your flight to check the flight status for your flights -- in addition to showing whether the flight is on time, it will also show departure and arrival gates for the flights. American flight attendants are also good at announcing arrival and connection gates during the flight, so when they make those announcements, you'll get to find out information on the gates there, too. Keep in mind, though, that these gates can change -- you'll want to double-check the gate information located on monitors throughout the airport.

The gate determination won't happen until the day of the flight. Even then it could change at a moments notice. That's why people should allow close to an hour layover. You will not know what gate your flight will be assigned to to disembark in DFW. You also can't be sure which gate the flight will be to houston until you actually land in DFW. I've been on several flights where the gate of the connecting flight has changed while in flight.
