Lakefront Airport
The Lakefront Airport was built in the 1930's. At the time of it's grand opening it was considered an architectual masterpiece. Built by the same architect that designed the Louisiana state capital building, it was the first major airport in the region, and served proudly as a general aviation airport to this day. Inside the terminal building, travellers would find an Art Deco wonderland, featuring murals by artist Xavier Gonzalez, friezes by Enrique R. Alferez and an array of stone wall and floor treatments

The Busiest Airport in the World

An airport such as WashingtonNational may have relatively high aircraft movements, but as the largestaircraft it handles is a Boeing 757, it handles relatively fewer annualpassengers than other airports with similar movements.
The Biggest Airport in the World
Taken literally as the airport which takes up the most land mass, thisis the King Fahd International Airport in Damman, Saudi Arabia. It takesup some 780 square kilometres - an area larger than many cities.
