We’ve made major improvements to our airport maps, adding more detail to make tracking aircraft movements on the ground easier than ever. With the latest updates, runways, taxiways, aprons, and gates are now clearly identified across all map types. This enhancement provides a more intuitive way to visualize where passengers are boarding and how aircraft move from the gate to the runway—and vice versa upon landing.
