Every airline in Airline Tycoon starts out of a selected "Home Airport" terminal building that you can choose at the Main Menu. From here, your airline can connect to other airports using routes or branches.
In Airline Tycoon 2, your home airport can only be selected in freeplay mode after selecting an airline. A home airport cannot be selected for missions in Airline Tycoon 2. Branches are also not available in Airline Tycoon 2.
The following is a list of airports found in the game, listed in alphabetical order. IATA indicates the IATA code used to identify the airport, ATD denotes airports found in Airline Tycoon Deluxe, while AT2 denotes airports found in Airline Tycoon 2. Some airport codes used by Airline Tycoon 2 may differ from those used by Airline Tycoon Deluxe, as indicated by two codes separated by a slash, "/", where the code before the slash is used by Airline Tycoon Deluxe and the code after the slash is used by Airline Tycoon 2.
