Passengers should definitely get a destination - then it would be worth
bussing them to out-of-town airports and stuff. Goods should be the same -
they should go to particular shops or offices. This would make combined
terminals much more useful because cargo could be bulk transport by train or
ship to a terminal and then distributed by truck or plane to its final
destination.

Also, airports should be able to have extra runways - once you've got a lot
of planes running out of one airport, it ceases to be profitable because
planes spend too long circling to land.
