The largest airport in the world

 First we need to estabilish our criteria. 

The largest airport in the world in terms of international passenger traffic is Dubai International Airport. 

It is the seat of one of the world's most luxurious airlines - Emirates. Dedicated for use by this Airline, Terminal 3 increased Dubai International’s total capacity by 43 million passengers per year.


The airport is not small in terms of the area either; it spreads over an area of 2,900 hectares. In total, it has 3 terminals, however Terminal 3 in Dubai International airport is the second-largest building in the world by floor space and the largest airport terminal in the world.


With 88 million passengers, 2.65 million tons of cargo, and 409,493 aircraft movements in 2017, it is the world's busiest airport by international passenger traffic and has been so for four consecutive years. Dubai International airport is also the sixth-busiest cargo airport in the world.

    So your new topic is airports. Okay.
    Try to use your own words. Copying from websites isn't very educational.

‘CONCORDE PRICING’ AS BRITISH AIRWAYS STRUGGLES TO MAINTAIN HEATHROW FLIGHT SCHEDULES

  I’ve read an article in Independent called “‘CONCORDE PRICING’ AS BRITISH AIRWAYS STRUGGLES TO MAINTAIN HEATHROW FLIGHT SCHEDULES” by Simon Calder. It was about how the airline British Airways increased the prices of flights until the Easter Monday and canceled some of them. Probably it’s not because of some financial crisis but because of no ability to carry out the flights. The high prices aims at reducing buying tickets and potential numer of passengers affected by cancellations. The prices are higher than prices for Concord flights on the route:London-New York (Concord was the fastest, long distance airplane, but since 2003 it has not flown). In my opinion British Airways shouldn’t working like that. If they are not able to realize the flight, they should canceled it. It will be easier for everyone, because they haven’t to change their flights. They will buy ticket from other airline.  https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/british-airways-flight-cancelled-concorde-

How many people must work at the airport for air traffic to run smoothly?

 Around 1.7 million people work at airports worldwide.  The income generated in this way amounts to less than EUR 70 billion a year.  The largest number of jobs directly at airports is in Germany (220.5 thousand), Great Britain (199.2 thousand), France (168.8 thousand) and Turkey (168.6 thousand).  23.1 thousand people work at Polish airports.  people.  But how many people do you need to operate the largest airport that I described two posts earlier?  It employs about 90,000 people.  This is more than all Polish airports and there are as many as 62 of them. This shows the size and capacity of these airports. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubai_International_Airport https://eu.usatoday.com/story/travel/flights/2016/03/30/airport-workers-employees/82385558/ https://www.pasazer.com/mobi/news/25267/ponad,12,mln,miejsc,pracy,na,lotniskach,w,europie.html
