12.1 Introduction
The airline industry depends vitally on a global infrastructure that consists of regional and
national air traffic management systems (Chapter 13) and airports. This chapter provides a
brief overview of the characteristics, operations and finances of large commercial airports,
those that handle more than roughly 3 million passengers per year. These airports are truly
central to the development, operation and economics of the airlines. Although in 2007
the total number of airports in this category was only about 280 - and the number of
those with more than 15 million only 90 - they served an overwhelming percentage of
the world’s passengers and air freight. The top 30 passenger airports alone (Table 12.1)
accounted for almost one-third of the 4.5 billion airport passengers1 worldwide in 2007
and the top 100 for about two-thirds.
Airports consist of: (a) the “airside” (or “airfield”) which includes the runways, taxi-
ways, aprons, aircraft maintenance areas, and air traffic control facilities and equipment,
as well as the land that surrounds all of these; and (b) the “landside”, i.e., the complex of
passenger buildings, cargo terminals and other supporting buildings (e.g., airport admin-
istration, utility plants, catering facilities, etc.), ground access facilities (curbside, access
roads, automobile parking areas and buildings, railroad stations, etc.), and any additional
non-aviation facilities (e.g., hotels, office buildings, shopping areas, etc.) that may be
located within an airport’s boundaries.
This chapter presents a summary of a number of important topics related to airports.
The objective is to familiarize the reader with a broad range of issues and with the rele-
vant terminology. References where one can find more detailed coverage are also given.
