    Airports have runways for aircraft takeoff and landing. There are four main types of airports: commercial service airports which serve more than 10,000 passengers annually; cargo service airports which handle over 100 million pounds of cargo annually; reliever airports which reduce congestion at other commercial airports; and general aviation airports. The key components of an airport include runways for takeoff and landing, taxiways connecting runways to terminals, aprons for aircraft parking, a terminal building for passenger facilities, a control tower for air traffic control, hangars for aircraft maintenance, and parking for vehicles.
