:chart_increasing: Airport Type & Size
GUM is a mid-sized airport focused on passenger traffic. It has two parallel runways:

  • Runway 6L/24R
  • Runway 6R/24L

The airport supports regional and international traffic and serves as a key United Airlines hub, especially for operations across Micronesia and East Asia.

:vertical_traffic_light: Why should this airport be added to World of Airports?
Guam would offer a unique gameplay experience, much like SXM, but with more jet traffic and hub-style operations thanks to United Airlines. It’s a strategic location in the Pacific with short- to medium-haul connectivity to Japan, Korea, the Philippines, and the US. It also opens the door for potential special aircraft liveries, like a retro Continental Micronesia 737-800.
