Fun airport
I got this for christmas and it is very fun but their should be ladders or stairs to go uptop. The airplane is really cool but the wheels keep coming off when I move it on the ground. It is cool how we put the luggage on the luggage mover and it moves when we turn uptop.
Pros.
Airplane is cool on the out side and inside
Luggage mover
The tower
Bad.
Should be more mini figs
wheels keep falling off
should be ladders or stairs

totally asthetic
I just bought this airport and I think is really NICE! I didn't really like the given red plane cause it looked more like a cargo one so I bought the passenger plane to go with this airport.
There is actually quite a no. of flaws, like no stairs to get to to the control tower, only one check in counter and one gate for the plane. But I have to say the entire building is actually really nice, especially if put under spot light. I think it was very creative for Lego to create the luggage check in and the passage way ( dont know what is the actual name ) to the plane is also very cute. Overall, I would love to give a 4.5 but I think I round up instead. Really a very cute set and is definitely worth collecting.5 out of 5 people thought this review was helpful.

Small plane, but OK.
This was a nice set. I liked the plane, and the blue glass on the airport!
Pros:
- Nice colours!
- Engines at the back of the plane!
- Observation deck on the airport!
- Turning luggage band in the airport!
- Great check-in hall!
- Contains a nice looking little service car!
- Contains a very nice swinging gate!
- Contains many more Airport details!
Cons:
- Plane can hold 8 passengers.
- There is no ladder to the plane.
- No staircase leading to the control tower (typical in City sets)
- The wings create a blockage inside the plane.
- Tail falls off easily.
- The directing lights (found with the service car) are not fastened and fall off the car.
Overall:
This was a very great set. It was actually the first set where I didn't get all the pieces at the start. Thanks to Lego Customer Service, I quickly ordered them back.
It is also very easy to modify the set. I added some red roof plates to this set, so I could move the engines on the plane to under the wing. (You just need to "cut off" part of the turbine.) I also added some more accessories that I got with the 7567.
There are many cons, but to tell the truth, they never really bothered me. For example, if you want a ladder, then you can build it with Lego Digital Designer.
A little thing I would like to explain is that there isn't any emergency vehicle with this set, except for a tiny fire extinguisher on the service car. If you do want an emergency vehicle, try getting the 7891 from 2006. It might help!
Comparing it to the new version made in 2010, the new airport has a little bar. It also contains the ladder that I would like to have. It also has many other nice details. Another aspect is that the control tower is not attached to the building. However, it doesn't have a gate! Finally, this version has the engines at the back of the plane, so that the wings don't bend down.
Overall, this wasn't a bad set, and it is a perfect starter set for one who wants to collect on planes. The 2010 version seems to be much nicer, so think carefully before you buy this set.
