Airport is Arthur Hailey’s bestselling novel about one stormy winter night at a busy Midwestern airport, Lincoln International, where a blizzard pushes the staff to their limits. General manager Mel Bakersfeld fights to keep the runways open while a desperate passenger boards a Rome-bound flight with a bomb, and the private troubles of pilots, air traffic controllers and stowaways pile up around them. Hailey looks closely at how a large airport really works and builds suspense that made the book a classic of the 1960s and the basis for the famous 1970 film. It suits readers who like fast-moving page-turners and stories about people under pressure.
