As we begin to wrap up with 2019, we continue with the heavy hitter theme of last week’s FNF! To make sure the hub airport can handle the traffic, this week we chose WMKK! A huge intercontinental hub and base for multiple carriers, the airport is perfect to handle all the flights by the community this week.
The airport has 3 parallel runways allowing for expedited arrival and departure flows. Multiple separate terminals also allow for efficient taxi routes, meaning you can get to your destination further. For established routes and all the airports, see further down this topic.
