The '''Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport''' is a primarily-domestic commercial airport in the city of Fort Lauderdale, Florida.  The airport sees heavy traffic from all US domestic carriers with a heavy presence from Low Cost Carriers such as Southwest, JetBlue, and Spirit.  International flights are provided by the likes of Bahamasair, Air Transat, Norwegian, and Azul. FLL offers multiple excellent spotting areas and very frequent traffic, albeit mostly domestic narrowbodies. Combined with the nearby [[Miami International Airport]], [[Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport]], and [[Opa-locka Airport]], FLL is an integral part of one of the best spotting regions in the United States.

Traffic - expect to see majority of departures and some arrivals for Terminal 4 - JetBlue, Spirit, and some of the international carriers. Majority of the arrivals remain on the northern runway so there can be slow times here. Bizjets, private aircraft, and float plane charters that operate from Sheltair can also be seen here.
