A typical flyplads includes a runway, which is a paved surface where aircraft accelerate to gain lift for takeoff and decelerate after landing. There are also taxiways, which are paths that connect the runway to the terminal and hangars. The terminal building is where passengers check in, go through security, and board their flights. It often houses shops, restaurants, and other amenities. Hangars are buildings used for aircraft maintenance and storage.

Larger flyplasser often have multiple runways and terminals, as well as advanced air traffic control systems to manage the flow of aircraft safely and efficiently. The presence of a flyplads can have a significant economic impact on the surrounding region, creating jobs and facilitating trade.
