The city of Amarillo, originally called Oneida, is situated in the Texas panhandle. It is a regional economic center and the Potter County seat. Amarillo was once dubbed the world’s helium capital because one of the most productive U.S. helium fields was located there. Today, the city is known for meatpacking, the only U.S. nuclear weapons assembly and disassembly facility, and its proximity to Route 66.
Military discounts for airline tickets and hotel accommodations make an Amarillo vacation very affordable.
