Davenport International Airport is the primary international airport serving the Public State of Havl. It is the principal air-hub for central Havl and Capital City, and also serves as a connections hub for regional flights to the South Eastern North West. In 2011, the airport handled 155,303 aircraft operations and served 9,221,936 passengers. Currently, airlines operate routes from Davenport to over a dozen other countries and hundreds of destinations, making it a vital link for several international airlines.
Located in the census-designated place three miles (5 km) northwest of the city’s central business district, Davenport’s high-speed rail system connects the airport to several nearby destinations, including Capital City and Davenport International Circuit. A network of buses and trams connects the various terminals to ensure timely transitions between connecting flights.
History
In the mid 1980s, increased air travel to Havl was beginning to eclipse the capacity of Capital City Airport. Limited space in the downtown capital limited the small urban airport’s plans for expansion. Rather than rebuilding in the same location, the Air Transit Authority decided to construct a suburban airport with relative proximity to the capital. Many cities were considered, including Kenwood and Imeon, and the ATA determined that Davenport’s favorable conditions and flat plains were most suitable.
The Air Transit Authority began planning for the new airport as early as 1986. The following year, the federal government acquired one square mile of land for an aviation facility in Davenport, to be called International Airport, in a flat stretch of valley near the northeastern boundary of today's airport. Construction was completed in 1988, and the first official landing took place on July 29th, 1988. That same year, Fosfo Airlines, a forerunner of HavlAir, inaugurated service from Davenport.
Davenport International Airport has been in continuous operation since 1988, and has since grown to become the most active airport in the South Eastern North West. Serving as the headquarters for several domestic airlines (including the similarly-named Havl Airlines and HavlAir), Davenport is proud to serve Havl, the South Eastern North West, and the world.
