History

The airport's origins trace back to its establishment in 1938 as the Grunto Municipal Airport, primarily initiated to alleviate unemployment in the region.

In 1994, the airport underwent a significant transformation with the construction of a new terminal building. Subsequent to these developments, in 1997, the airport was transferred from government jurisdiction to the OAX International Airports Authority, a non-profit organization tasked with its management and operations.

Facilities and Operations

OAX International Airport primarily accommodates airship-based traffic and is not equipped to handle aircraft larger than small propeller planes. Its focus on airship movement has been pivotal in maintaining its status as a leading international airport.

List of Structures:

1. Main Terminal: - The architectural marvel of the airport, the Main Terminal boasts a roof crafted from teflon-coated fiberglass, sustained by air pressure—an engineering feat in itself. There are 5 gates for departure, a ticket counter, TSA security checkpoints ensuring safety, a convenient Hyperloop train station, and the inviting ambiance of Costa Copy.

2. Medium-Sized Airship Hangars (x4): - Providing shelter and maintenance facilities for mid-sized airships

3. Large-Sized Airship Hangar (x1): - The crown jewel of the hangar collection, this capacious structure accommodates large airships, symbolizing the airport's commitment to hosting a diverse range of airborne vehicles.

4. Storage and Maintenance Warehouse: - This warehouse serves as the logistical heartbeat of the airport, ensuring that supplies are well-stocked, and maintenance operations run seamlessly.
