    Southlake gets a new hotel, in time for the holidays. According to a release, Delta Hotels by Marriott Dallas Southlake is scheduled to open in November at SH114 and White Chapel Boulevard.

    The hotel is six stories, with 240 rooms and what it says will be a heightened culinary experience. That includes input from celebrity chef Dean Fearing, who consulted on plans for the hotel's Sky Creek Kitchen and Bar, which features Southwestern cuisine and craft drinks.

    The leadership team consists of familiar hospitality industry heavy hitters including hotel manager John Emmett, opening manager John Yeung, sales director John Crosier, director of food & beverage and executive chef Enam Chowdhury, chef de cuisine Jose Soto, and catering manager Gino Del Valle.

    Amenities include:

    • premium bedding and towels
    • large workspaces and free bottled water
    • complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the hotel
    • hydration stations on each floor
    • chef-inspired grab-and-go food market
    • 24-hour elite pantry
    • full-service fitness center
    • outdoor pool and lounge

    The hotel also has high-tech meeting and conference facilities, with eight meeting rooms and a ballroom. The hotel will soon be accepting reservations for guest room stays, dining reservations, corporate meetings, catered events, weddings, bar mitzvahs, bat mitzvahs, they're ready for every kind of mitvah you got.

    "Our focus at this world-class hotel is on doing the simple things perfectly, featuring a clean aesthetic and a modern take on comfort," manager John Emmett says. "Every touchpoint is masterfully designed and prioritized to meticulously and seamlessly deliver the key essentials guests need and eliminate everything they don't."

    The Delta Hotels by Marriott Dallas Southlake anchors a 16-acre mixed-use development that also features office and retail space.

    It's the second Delta Hotel in DFW; the first was Delta Hotels by Marriott Dallas Allen & Watters Creek Convention Center.

    Delta Hotels, which has 60-plus locations in the U.S., Canada, China, and Germany, was acquired by Marriott International in 2015, and participates in the company's award-winning loyalty programs including Marriott Rewards, The Ritz-Carlton Rewards, and Starwood Preferred Guest (SPG).

    DFW and Love Field saw sharp passenger declines in 2025, per report

    DFW is the third most popular destination in the U.S., yet passenger traffic has dropped, according to the report.

    A new global airport travel study has revealed passenger traffic at both Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport and Dallas Love Field Airport have sharply decreased from 2024 to 2025.

    The analysis from travel magazine LocalsInsider examined recently released data from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), the U.S. International Trade Association, and a nationwide survey to determine the following American traveler habits: The most popular U.S. and international destinations, emerging hotspots, and destinations on the decline. The study covered passenger travel trends from January through July 2025.

    In the report's ranking of the 40 U.S. airports with the sharpest declines in passenger traffic, Dallas Love Field (DAL) had the 11th steepest drop, while Dallas/Fort Worth International (DFW) ranked 33rd on the list.

    More than 5.13 million arrivals were reported at DAL from January through July 2024, compared to over 4.75 million during the same seven-month period in 2025. According to the data, that's a 7.4 percent drop in passenger traffic year-over-year, or a loss of 380,295 passengers.

    DFW had a higher numerical decrease in passenger traffic from 2024 to 2025 – with 578,715 fewer arrivals reported – but it only represents a 2.4 percent drop in arrivals overall. More than 23.83 million passengers arrived in DFW during the first seven months of 2024, compared to 23.25 million this year.

    Despite the year-over-year drop in passenger traffic, the report also dubbed DFW as the No. 3 most popular destination in the country for 2025. DFW had the third-highest rate of air passenger traffic out of all U.S. airports from January to May 2025, amounting to 13,853,733 arrivals.

    "Despite the rise of secondary airports and new emerging hotspots, the busiest hubs still dominate when it comes to raw passenger traffic," the report's author wrote. "These destinations remain leaders due to a mix of business, tourism, and international connectivity."

    Passenger traffic declines at other Texas airports
    It appears most major Texas airports had drops in passenger traffic from 2024 to 2025. DAL was the worst offender in the state, and Houston's William P. Hobby Airport (HOU) saw a 7.1 percent decline, representing the second-steepest drop in passenger arrivals in Texas.

    Over 4.26 million passengers arrived at HOU from January to July 2024, but that number fell by nearly 301,000 passengers during the same time period this year. Only 3.96 million passengers arrivals were reported at HOU during the first seven months of 2025.

    This is how passenger traffic has fallen at other major Texas airports from 2024 to 2025:

    Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS):

    • 6,107,597 – Passenger arrivals from January to July 2024
    • 5,828,396 – Passenger arrivals from January to July 2025
    • -4.6 percent – Year-over-year passenger change
    San Antonio International Airport (SAT):
    • 2,937,870 – Passenger arrivals from January to July 2024
    • 2,836,774 – Passenger arrivals from January to July 2025
    • -3.4 percent – Year-over-year passenger change
    El Paso International Airport (ELP):
    • 1,094,431 – Passenger arrivals from January to July 2024
    • 1,076,845 – Passenger arrivals from January to July 2025
    • -1.6 percent – Year-over-year passenger change
