Human-reviewed airport guidance

Editorial Policy

Our editorial policy explains how airport-guides.org/ creates human-reviewed airport guides using official sources, manual verification and practical traveller-first writing.

Official-source priority Manual link checks U.S. airport focus Travel-safety disclaimers

Our editorial standard

airport-guides.org/ publishes educational airport guides for travellers who need clear, practical and trustworthy information. Each guide is written for real travel tasks, not for thin directory-style content. We want a reader to understand what the airport code means, where to find the official terminal map, how parking options are usually organized, what to verify before arrival, how to check ground transportation, and where to go for final official confirmation.

We may use AI to organize notes, draft structure, create checklists or improve readability. However, AI is not treated as an official source and is not allowed to replace human editorial judgment. Our content writer and editorial reviewer must check official websites, verify important links and decide whether the final guide is safe, useful and understandable for travellers.

What makes an airport guide publishable

User intent is clear

The page must answer the actual airport task: terminal, code, parking, map, transportation, security, accessibility, arrivals or practical travel planning.

Official sources are prioritized

We prefer official airport websites, FAA resources, TSA pages, DOT resources, official transit pages and airline pages when relevant.

Human review is required

A human editor reviews the structure, link quality, readability, risk warnings and source clarity before publication.

Editorial checks before publication

CheckWhat we verifyWhy it protects the reader
Official airport linkThe guide points users to the airport’s official site whenever possible.Users should not rely only on third-party summaries for final travel decisions.
Phone/address/map detailsImportant contact, address and map information is checked against official or high-trust sources.Wrong directions can cause missed flights, wrong parking choices or accessibility problems.
Parking and transportation notesWe check official parking pages, maps, shuttle notes and public transport pages where available.Airport parking and pick-up rules are often updated because of construction and traffic control.
TSA and security guidanceWe link users to official TSA guidance for final security rules.Security rules and checkpoint decisions are controlled by TSA, not our website.
Accessibility informationWe encourage confirmation with airport/airline accessibility teams and official DOT guidance.Passenger assistance depends on the trip, airline and airport layout.

Plain-language writing rules

Our guides should be easy to read on a phone while a user is preparing for a trip. We use short sections, clear labels, practical checklists, official links and warnings where a detail may change. We avoid over-promising. We do not tell users that parking, terminal, gate, checkpoint or shuttle information is guaranteed forever. We tell users what to verify and where to verify it.

When a topic is sensitive or time-dependent, the article must say so clearly. Airport delays, weather closures, TSA checkpoint operations, construction detours, rideshare zones, accessibility services and airline terminal assignments can change quickly.
