The nearest airfield for Kennedy Space Center is Titusville – Space Coast
Regional (TIX) which is approximately nine miles away.
Even if you have been to Kennedy Space Center in the last few years, I would recommend
that you visit again because the entire complex has been substantially modernised. The
previous tours have also been changed and new areas of the complex have been opened up to
the public for the first time with a range of new exhibits.

Kennedy Space Center is open every day of the year from 9.00 am until dusk and
admission is free. There is however a small charge for the bus tour and the IMAX films.
Please note that on launch days, access to Kennedy Space Center may be restricted.
