Toncontin International Airport in Honduras is considered the most dangerous airport in the world. In addition to serving civilians, this airport also serves the military.

In addition, the plane must also use the beach to land and take off while pulling its distance. It’s the only airport in the world that uses this learning technique.

Kai Tak Airport in Hong Kong has very difficult take-offs due to strong winds. Being in the middle of the water, the pier looks complicated.
