Whereas the first airports could be run by a handful of people, they now require tens of thousands to keep everything running like clockwork. As one example, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.airport.kr\/co_file\/ko\/file01\/SR_2021_eng.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Korea\u2019s Incheon International Airport has 70,000 workers<\/a>.<\/p><p>The facilities that make up an airport can be broadly divided into two types: those needed for the airplanes and those needed for the people and cargo that are transported.<\/p><p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/simpleflying.com\/airport-infrastructure\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">essential facilities<\/a> that an airport must have for the airplanes are an air traffic control tower; runway and taxiway; hangers for aircraft maintenance repairs and inspections; lighting, signage, and markings to guide the pilot to and from the terminal; a weather monitoring station; fuel storage and pumps; firefighting facilities; and an apron, where the planes are parked, loaded, and unloaded.<\/p><p>The facilities necessary for the people and cargo, including the passengers, ground staff, and flight crew of the airlines, are mostly housed in the terminal building. They include jet bridges that link airplanes to the terminal; first aid facilities; arrival and departure facilities such as check-in desks, baggage claim areas; cargo processing areas; customs, immigration and quarantine facilities; and security facilities.<\/p><p>Of course, these are just the bare minimum, and most airports now also have additional facilities such as restaurants, banks, money change counters, car parking, lounges and hotels, rest and preparation areas for airport staff, and linkages to local public transport services.<\/p><p>An infographic that briefly shows the major facilities required at most airports can be seen below.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9de68a3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"9de68a3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"621\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/03\/MAR-NO2-InfographicAIRPORT-INFRASTRUCTURE5-621x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-41306\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/03\/MAR-NO2-InfographicAIRPORT-INFRASTRUCTURE5-621x1024.jpg 621w, https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/03\/MAR-NO2-InfographicAIRPORT-INFRASTRUCTURE5-182x300.jpg 182w, https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/03\/MAR-NO2-InfographicAIRPORT-INFRASTRUCTURE5-932x1536.jpg 932w, https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/03\/MAR-NO2-InfographicAIRPORT-INFRASTRUCTURE5.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 621px) 100vw, 621px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6bbb3e0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"6bbb3e0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Airport construction business of Samsung C&T E&C Group<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-59e65ca elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"59e65ca\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Samsung C&amp;T\u2019s Engineering and Construction Group has abundant experience working on airports around the world.
