This template adds an automatically generated short description. If the automatic short description is not optimal, replace it by adding {{Short description}} at the top of the article.
The following blank template includes all of the available parameter names, except for repeating names used for runways and statistics. All parameters except name are optional; however, "IATA: none – ICAO: none", along with the heading "Summary", will always appear. Any unused parameters should be omitted, but can also be left blank if preferred. The use of flag icons with this infobox is discouraged.

These parameters specify an airport photograph or logo which is displayed below the title. A second image can also be displayed below the first image by using the parameter names ending with a "2".
These parameters specify airport details for the "Summary" section displayed below the airport codes.
type
Airport type should be one of the following: Public, Private, MilitaryorMilitary/Public. Do not use Commercial, GeneralorCivil.
owner-oper
If the airport is owned and operated by the same entity, use this in place of owner and operator.
owner
Name of the airport owner.
operator
Name of the airport operator, if not the owner.
city-served
If the airport is associated with a major city but actually located in a smaller town, list the major city here and the smaller town under location. This is not automatically linked, in order to allow multiple links if needed.
Example: city-served = Paris
Result: Paris
location
Name of the town or city where the airport is located. Do not put the airport's street address in this field. This is not automatically linked, in order to allow multiple links if needed.
The date when the airport originally opened for commercial service.
Example: {{start date|1989|09|22}}
Result: September 22, 1989
closed
The date when the airport closed, either temporarily or permanently, along with reason for closing (for presently closed airports only). Use {{end date}}.
passenger_services_ceased
The date when passenger services to the airport ceased due to conversion of the airport for another use, along with the new use for the airport. Only for airports that previously had passenger services. Use {{end date}}.
hub
If the airport serves as a hub, list the airlines here in alphabetical order. This is not automatically linked, in order to allow multiple links if needed. Use {{Unbulleted list}} if the list is long.
If the airport serves as an operating base for an airline, list it here in alphabetical order, unless the airline is already listed under hub or focus_city. This parameter is most commonly used for Ultra-low cost airlines which do not have hubs or focus cities. Use {{Unbulleted list}} if the list is long.
These optional parameters provide additional information for military airports. The parameter names are based on those used in Template:Infobox military structure. This allows the display of information from that template, without the need to include an additional infobox. See example 4 below.
built
The date when the structure was built, usually given in years.
used
The period during which the structure was in active military use, usually given in years.
commander
The current commanding officer, for structures currently in military use.
occupants
Any notable military units which occupy the structure.
This template allows for the insertion of geographic coordinates in two different ways: you can either provide a complete {{Coord}} template in the coordinates parameter, or you can provide the individual coordinate components (degrees, minutes, seconds, etc.) in the separate parameters described below. The latter method also allows you to insert a pushpin map with an automatically-placed airport icon and label (see below).
If you use both methods, then the coordinates parameter will be used in the infobox.
coordinates
Latitude and Longitude of airport, specified using the {{Coord}} template. When entering the coordinates always ensure that the resultant map or image shows the airport. It is very easy to confuse "N" for "S" or "E" for "W". If used as shown below, this will also cause the airport to appear in Google Earth's Geographic Web Layer.
This template provides three ways to include a map: as a simple image, or using interactive Mapframe maps, or using {{Location map}} (with the coordinate parameters described above to automatically place a pushpin mark and label on a map).
Am image map can be displayed by providing a value for image_map. The remaining image_ parameters are optional.
image_map
The name of an image to use as a map, such as Airport_map.png (do not include the File:orImage: prefix).
image_mapsize
(optional) The width to display the image map, in pixels. Just the number, no "px". If omitted or left empty, defaults to 220.
image_map_alt
(optional)Alt text for the image map. If left blank or omitted, this defaults to same text used in image_map_caption (or Location of {{{name}}} if no caption).
image_map_caption
(optional) Caption to display below the image map. If left blank or omitted, a caption will not be displayed.
mapframe – Specify yes or no to show or hide the map, overriding the default. Default:no
mapframe-caption – Caption for the map. Default: blank (or if |mapframe-geomask= is set, "Location in geomask's label")
mapframe-custom – Use a custom map instead of the automatic mapframe. Specify either a {{maplink}} template, or another template that generates a mapframe map, or an image name. If used, the subsequent mapframe parameters will be ignored. Default: not specified
mapframe-idoridorqid – Id (Q-number) of Wikidata item to use. Default:item for current page
mapframe-coordinatesormapframe-coordorcoordinatesorcoord – Coordinates to use, instead of any on Wikidata. Use the {{Coord}} template, e.g. |coord={{Coord|12.34|N|56.78|E}}. Default:coordinates from Wikidata
mapframe-wikidata – Set to yes to show shape/line features from the wikidata item, if any, when |coord= is set. Default:not specified
Customise which features are displayed:
mapframe-shape – Turn off display of shape feature by setting to none. Use an inverse shape (geomask) instead of a regular shape by setting to inverse. Default:not specified
mapframe-point – Turn off display of point feature by setting to none. Force point marker to be displayed by setting to on. Default:not specified
mapframe-line – Turn off display of line feature by setting to none. Default:not specified
mapframe-geomask – Wikidata item to use as a geomask (everything outside the boundary is shaded darker). Can either be a specific Wikidata item (Q-number), or a property that specifies the item to use (e.g. P17 for country (P17), P131 for located in the administrative territorial entity (P131)). Default: airport
mapframe-switcher – set to autoorgeomasksorzooms to enable Template:Switcher-style switching between multiple mapframes. Default:not specified
geomasks – switch between the geomasks specified as a comma-separated list of Wikidata items (Q-numbers) in the mapframe-geomask parameter
zooms – switch between "zoomed in"/"zoomed midway"/"zoomed out", where "zoomed in" is the default zoom (with a minimum of 3), "zoomed out" is 1, and "zoomed midway" is the average
Can also be set to blank to override any default marker symbol
mapframe-marker-colorormapframe-marker-colour – Background color for the marker. Default: #5E74F3
mapframe-geomask-stroke-colorormapframe-geomask-stroke-colour – Color of outline of geomask shape. Default: #555555
mapframe-geomask-stroke-width – Width of outline of geomask shape. Default:2
mapframe-geomask-fill – Color used to fill outside geomask features. Default: #606060
mapframe-geomask-fill-opacity – Opacity level of fill outside geomask features, a number between 0 and 1. Default: 0.5
mapframe-zoom – Set the zoom level, from "1" (map of earth) to "18" (maximum zoom in), to be used if the zoom level cannot be determined automatically from object length or area. Default:10
mapframe-length_km or mapframe-length_mi or mapframe-area_km2 or mapframe-area_mi2 – Determine zoom level by passing in object's length (in kilometres or miles) or area (in square kilometres or square miles). Default:not specified
mapframe-frame-coordinatesormapframe-frame-coord – Alternate latitude and longitude coordinates for initial placement of map, using {{coord}}. Default:derived from item coordinates
A location map can be displayed by providing values for coordinates, and pushpin_map. The remaining pushpin_ parameters are optional.
pushpin_map
The name of a location map as per Template:Location map (e.g. IndonesiaorRussia). The |coordinates= parameter values position a pushpin mark and label on the map automatically.
pushpin_mapsize
(optional) The width to display the pushpin map, in pixels. Just the number, without "px". If omitted or left empty, defaults to 220.
(optional) Name of an alternative map image, which must have the same edge coordinates as the location map template specified via pushpin_map (see example 5). Do not include the File:orImage: prefix. For additional information, see Template:Location map#AlternativeMap parameter.
pushpin_label
(optional) The text of the label to place next to the pushpin mark (see example 1). The default is the value of the name parameter.
pushpin_label_position
(optional) The position of the label on the pushpin map relative to the pushpin mark (see example 5). Valid values are left, right, top and bottom. This defaults to either leftorright, depending on the coordinates of the marker and its position relative to the right border of the map image.
(optional) The size of the mark in pixels (see example 5). The default is 10. Do not include px, for example: pushpin_marksize = 8, not pushpin_marksize = 8px.
These parameters control how certain fields within the infobox are displayed.
metric-elev
Set to any value to display elevation in metric units (metres) before imperial/US units (feet); leave blank to display imperial/US units first. This can be seen in example 1.
metric-rwy
Set to any value to display runway length in metric units (metres) before imperial/US units (feet); leave blank to display imperial/US units first. Examples 1 and 2 below show the runway length with metres first; example 3 and 4 show it with feet before metres.
These parameters specify details for each runway in the "Runways" section displayed below the summary. This can also be used to specify water landing areas for seaplanes (see Fairbanks International Airport). Parameters start with r1- for the first runway, r2- for the second runway, up to r8- for the eighth runway (if more are needed, leave a message on the talk page). Each airport should have at least one runway.
rn-number (r1-number, r2-number, ...)
The designation of the runway, normally two numbers like this → 02/20, 1st number is 18 lower than the 2nd. Where there are parallel runways an additional letter is added to each number, for example "L" for left, "R" for right and "C" for center. In certain cases a runway will only have one number when it can only be used in one direction. For airports in the United States the leading zero is not used and the designation should read 2/20.
These parameters specify details for each helipad in the "Helipads" section displayed below the runways. Parameters start with h1- for the first helipad, h2- for the second helipad, up to h12- for the twelfth helipad (if more are needed, leave a message on the talk page). This section is optional and only appears if the h1- parameters are specified. See example 1 and example 3 below.
hn-number(h1-number, h2-number, ...)
The designation of the helipad. In the United States this is usually the letter "H" followed by a number, i.e. "H1", "H2", etc.
hn-length-f (h1-length-f, h2-length-f, ...)
Helipad length in feet.
hn-length-m (h1-length-m, h2-length-m, ...)
Helipad length in metres.
hn-surface (h1-surface, h2-surface, ...)
Helipad surface type, such as: Concrete, Asphalt, etc. Avoid the generic type "Paved" if possible.
These parameters specify details for an optional "Statistics" section displayed below the runways and helipads. Parameters start with stat1- for the first statistic, stat2- for the second statistic, etc. This section only appears if the stat1- parameters are specified. See example 1 and example 3 below.
statn-header (stat1-header, stat2-header, ...)
A brief description of each statistic, such as PassengersorAircraft operations.
statn-data (stat1-data, stat2-data, ...)
The data associated with the corresponding header.
stat-year
The calendar year for the statistics. This is displayed in parentheses after the word "Statistics" in the section header.

The HTML markup produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the place-name and location parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. Within the hCard is a Geo microformat, which additionally makes the coordinates (latitude & longitude) parsable, so that they can be, say, looked up on a map, or downloaded to a GPS unit.
