:round_pushpin: IST/LTFM Istanbul Havalimani airport

:globe_showing_europe_africa: Location: Istanbul, Turkey

:chart_increasing: Airport Type & Size - Turkish airlines international hub, with 5 runways, supports all aircraft, 80M pax/year, square size 76.5km²

:vertical_traffic_light: Why should this airport be added to World of Airports?
ISTanbul airport Havalimani is very importaint airport between Europe, Asia and Africa. It is very big and it can acomodate a lot of aircrafts. It is really big travelling airport that conects two parts of world. There are a lot of conections with other airports around all the globe. Main airlines there are Turkish airlines, Pegasus, few planes from Asia (Emirates, Singapure, airlines from China), many European airlines fly to that airport too. I think this airport should be in the game because of it’s size, location and importance.

:airplane_departure: Major Airlines & Routes All around the Europe, 3/4 of Asia (southeast is to far away), big citys all around Africa, many routes to biger citys in North and South America. There is no routes to Australia yet.

:world_map: Unique Features or Challenges
Because of it’s size there are a lot of long taxi ways, very big main terminal, a lot of cargo spots, very very bussy.

That airport should be in game becouse of its size and becouse it is bussiest airprot in Europe. All pleyers want huge aiport, hundrets of parking sports, big cargo terminals…That is best airport and now we got a chanse to vote it! Lets vote, lets win and lets build it!!!

I have a question: Is this the one that first did a triple takeoff? Or is it the other one on the Asian side?

I think it was this here’s updated picture with 5 runways
