Note
A regular plural, made with a plain -s and taking plural agreement: the airports are busy, never the airports is. It belongs to the common noun for an airfield with its runways and, at commercial sites, its passenger terminals. Capitalized Airport is also a place name: a community in Stanislaus County, California, and barangays in Iloilo City and Ormoc in the Philippines. Those names are not what this plural counts.
