Tag Archives: Component Parts

LEGO City Airport Aerophiles rejoice! Lego s colossal 700-piece airport kit is a very cool kit with tons of realistic details, including a jet (747, naturally) with seats and cockpit with instrumentation, air traffic control tower, baggage truck, baggage claim area with spinning conveyor belt, jetway, revolving door into airport, security checkpoint, viewing area, and a variety of airport personnel. Kids (and some adults, too; you know who you are ) will spend hours playing airport: sending travelers through grueling security checks (these are 21st century children, after all), boarding passengers and loading luggage, monitoring air traffic from the control tower, checking the engines of the airplane before take-off, spinning suitcases around the baggage carousel. Each major component (jet, main airport, air traffic control tower and jetway, baggage truck, baggage claim) has its own set of wordless instructions, which are fairly easy to follow, especially for veteran Lego craftspeople. And especially if you manage to keep the component parts separate but that s an issue that goes with the Lego territory. Truly, this is one fantastic addition to the Lego City collection. –Emilie Coulter
Customer Review: My son loves it (age 9)
My 9 year old thinks its great because you can take off the roof of the plane and put the people in and give them snacks. And you have people in the control tower. It looks like a real airport with waiting area and flowers and the screening process area and even the bridge from the plane to the terminal. The only issue I have is the planes wheels falls off more when you play on a carpet – not bad on a hard surface.
Customer Review: One of the best airports
I really liked how the airport came with all the stuff that came in a real airport was in it, like the jetway, baggage claim, and the control tower was much better than I could make. The plane is pretty durable, and with the City Passenger Plane, you get two planes!
