List of busiest city airport systems by passenger traffic

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The world's busiest city airport systems by passenger traffic are measured by total number of passengers from all airports within a city or metropolitan area combined. London, with six commercial airports serving its metropolitan area, is the busiest city airport system in the world,[1] although Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport is the world's busiest individual airport.[2]
