Airport operator
Airport operators are private or public companies that operate as airports . They make the entire airport infrastructure available to the airlines and air traffic control .
General
Airfields ( airports , landing fields and glider airfields ) may only be created or operated with an operating license according to Section 6 (1) LuftVG . In the approval procedure for airfields that require planning approval , the environmental compatibility must also be examined according to this provision . The approval of an airport is issued by the aviation authority of the country in which the site is located ( Section 39 (1) LuftVZO ). In contrast to the road and railway planning approval, the operational issues are more in the foreground at airports.
