Related termsFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. An airport is a location where aircraft such as fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, and blimps takeoff and land. Aircraft may be stored or maintained at an airport. An airport consists of at least one surface such as a runway for a plane to takeoff and land, a helipad, or water for takeoffs and landings, and often includes buildings such as control towers, hangars and terminal buildings. Larger airports may have fixed base operator services, seaplane docks and ramps, air traffic control, passenger facilities such as restaurants and lounges, and emergency services. A military airport is known as an airbase or air station. The terms aerodrome, airdrome, airfield, and airstrip may also be used to refer to airports, and the terms heliport, seaplane base, and STOLport refer to airports dedicated exclusively to helicopters, seaplanes, or short take-off and landing aircraft. In some jurisdictions, the term airport is used when the facility is licensed as such by the relevant government organization (e.g. the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Transport Canada). Elsewhere the distinction is one of general appearance. Other jurisdictions define an airport as having the customs offices etc. expected of a port, though the more general term is airport of entry.

Answered by harry k - Thu Feb 21 13:44:38 2008 What happens in the airport after you get off a plane? Q. I have never been on a plane, but my latest novel begins with the main character (16 years old) getting off the plane alone at LaGuardia Airport in New York. What is the actual process between alighting the plane and her parents collecting her from the airport? Asked by { s i l v e r } n onde nd - Sun Apr 12 13:00:19 2009 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments A. Well since your character is 16, thenshe is considered an adult by the airlines, so she won't need any special assistance from any airline staff. The process is as follows: 1.) Walk from the jet bridge into the terminal area. 2.) Then she would read the signs above for "Baggage Claim" if she has any bags checked. If not, then she would still go to the baggage claim level as that's where passenger pick up is. You could throw a twist in there and make the airline lose her bag and she would have to stop by the baggage claim and file a PAWOB for her missing piece of luggage.

Q. My 17-year-old daughter went to Thailand with a family we know who are missionaries. She will be flying back alone and arriving at the Atlanta airport next week. I need to pick her up, but don't know how to find her. This was her first flight, and I've only flown once a long time ago, and was with someone else. So I know absolutely nothing about how airports work. All I've been able to find out so far is that I can park in hourly parking. But how do I know where to go? The airport is huge! She will be flying Delta. Asked by BB - Fri Aug 3 17:28:17 2007 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments A. You'll need the flight number and arrival time. You should the Delta website before leaving, as many international flights are delayed. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta is one of the largest and busiest airports in the world. Delta operates the world's largest airline hub in the world from this airport. Delta's domestic flights are housed in Concourse T, your specific flight should be in Internation Concourse, Concourse E, if it is coming directly from Thailand. Hope this helps.
