The aviation industry has witnessed significant growth over the last century, leading to the construction of numerous airports globally. Despite this expansion, some airports have been in operation since the early days of aviation. Here is a look at the world's ten oldest airports still functioning today.
Albany International Airport (ALB), which opened in 1928, ranks as the tenth-oldest airport still operational. It underwent several refurbishments and expansions, most recently constructing a dedicated terminal for Southwest Airlines. The airport handles approximately 2.7 million passengers annually, with Baltimore being its busiest destination.
Minneapolis/Saint Paul International Airport (MSP) was established in 1920 and initially named Speedway Field. Renamed multiple times, it now serves as a major hub for Delta Air Lines with connections to various long-haul destinations like London Heathrow and Seoul Incheon.
