A new and improved airport concept is disclosed herein. Redesigned aircraft would be allowed to dock in the terminal instead of pulling up to loading bridge. The nose section of the aircraft would tilt upwards or to the side, either before or after the aircraft enters the terminal docking station, wherein the passenger compartment would be removed from the aircraft and placed in a deplaning area. Subsequently, a new passenger compartment, fully loaded, would be placed into the plane. Baggage would also be compartmentalized and would be removed through the tail end section of the plane and the next baggage compartment would be put in place. The airport would be laid out in order to minimize passenger traffic and restrict vehicles to emergency and official airport use only. Common use aircraft could be used to accommodate a variety of airline companies flights, and also reduce fuel consumption and time. Dwell time at gates being reduced will mean less gates required to accommodate all aircraft. Terminals will no longer need to be spread out to accommodate more people. New restaurant designs would allow for a food court or restaurant tower.
