Operated by the Greenfield Department of Aviation, and covering over 4 kilometers of land, GIA has non-stop flights to over 200 destinations in North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Oceania as of 2022.

GIA began as an airfield for manufacturing C-54 military transports during World War II. As one of the first airports developed after the war, GIA's innovative design pioneered concepts such as concourses, direct highway access to the terminal, jet bridges, and underground refueling systems. GIA became famous during the jet age, holding he distinction as one of the world's top five busiest airports from 1963 to 1998, reaching second place for the years of 1992-1998.

== Build History ==

=== [[Update 0.5.3|0.5.3]] ===
Initial admin planning began at the end of 0.5.3.

=== [[Update 0.5.4|0.5.4]] ===
The development of the Greenfield International Airport officially started in mid 2019, with the release of the plans for Los Llanos and Rockwell to the admin team by THEJESTR11. The original airport plan was nothing more then three parallel runways and a bunch of open grass space. Admin 56515 took the lead on developing a more detailed plan for the airport and eventually ended on a 2 parallel runway configuration with a crossing angled runway. from the very beginning the goal of the structure was to create an airport that didn't conform to Minecraft's grid. This meant that terminals would be at realistic angles from each other. Much of the early planning and laying out work was done by 56515. The road systems as well as the runway work was primarily done by Admins Staples and NJDaeger. Of the three terminals, it was decided that 56515 would tackle terminal 1, Staples terminal 2, and past Admin JacobKazias terminal 3. As the project developed many others assisted in the build process, especially with the interiors of terminals and the development of the cargo center. Eventually Architect Dasky joined the build team and quickly made some important changes to the airport to make it more realistic and in line with real life airports because of his real life experience. Together, with the help of the rest of the build team, Greenfield International Airport has become one of the most impressive parts of the project.

== Facilities ==

Greenfield International Airport has three public terminals named Terminal 1, 2 and 3. Terminal 2 and 3 hold the majority of domestic flights and are older, being built in the 1970s and 1980s.

'''Novia Ground Solutions''', commonly known as Novia, is an aviation services business providing ground handling, cargo handling, cargo forwarding and into-plane (ITP) fuelling, based in California, USA.

=== History ===
[[File:Novia1.png|thumb|Novia Ground Solutions at GIA]]
'''Novia Ground Solutions''' was established in 1978 in San Diego, CA, with just five employees. Since operations began at San Diego International Airport in the spring of 1979 it has grown to other airports in California including Los Angeles Intl. Airport (LAX) and San Francisco Intl. Airport (SFO). Today, Novia Ground Solutions employs 3,100 people who handle passenger, cargo, ramp and technical services for airlines at airports across California:
*Greenfield International Airport (GIA)

*San Francisco International Airport (SFO)
*Oakland International Airport
*Sacramento International Airport
*San Jose International Airport
*Long Beach Airport
*John Wayne Airport
*San Diego International Airport
*Palm Springs International Airport
In 2011, Novia Ground Solutions were close to lose its 7-year handling license in John Wayne Airport to Globe Handling. This would have led to the loss of thousands of jobs and as a consequence a major 24-hour strike was carried out in June 2011 that affected many flights and passengers. Novia Ground Solutions went to court as they believed juridical mistakes had been made. The judge ruled that a new investigation was to be conducted and that, in the meantime, Novia could continue operations at the airport. Before a new investigation was concluded, Globe Handling took over Flightcare, the other ground handling company at the airport. Note that only two handling licences are issued at John Wayne Airport.
