Commercial air travel, and indeed the transport of cargo by air, has seen a huge increase in volume over the past few decades. Although aircraft development has been increasingly in the spotlight as it strives to keep pace with the demands of the marketplace, airports have also had to move with the times.
Every day millions of travellers pass through thousands of airports around the globe. The modern day airport is almost a town in its own right with shops, restaurants and a wealth of other facilities - all designed to make the passenger feel at ease and at home both before and after a journey.
This Airliner World special magazine takes an in depth look at some of the world's major airports - including London Heathrow, Frankfurt, Miami, Sydney, Riga and Dubai. Subjects covered include the airport's history, layout, infrastructure, customer airlines, future expansion plans and spectator viewing facilities. A wealth of images showing both the airports and a wide variety of the world's airlines will illustrate these features.
Other airports covered will include Nottingham East Midlands, in particular its night time cargo operations. Behind the scenes and technical articles will also be included to look at local Air Traffic Control and baggage handling and there will be some historic photo spreads showing airports in the golden era of air travel
