Airport

By: Arthur Hailey

Narrated by: BJ Harrison

The number one New York Times best-selling thriller about an airport thrust into chaos by a whiteout blizzard: "A spellbinder" (The Denver Post).

As a raging blizzard wreaks havoc at Lincoln International Airport outside Chicago, airport and airline personnel try to cope with this unstoppable force of nature that is endangering thousands of lives. And in the air, a lone plane struggles to reach its destination. Over the course of seven pulse-pounding hours, a tense human drama plays out as a brilliant airport manager, an arrogant pilot, a tough maintenance man, and a beautiful stewardess strive to avert disaster.

Featuring a diverse cast of vibrant characters, Airport is both a realistic depiction of the airline industry and a novel of nail-biting suspense.

Another favorite enjoyed!

Been a long time since I read this book; so glad to have it available. Story is of course gripping and terrific. Narration was phenomenal; one of the best readings I've ever listened to - GREAT job!!

Wonderful author and story!

Hailey not only crafts an intricate and suspenseful story, he takes you into the inner workings of whatever institution he's writing about (e.g.airport). Though most of his books are dated, you still receive a detailed understanding of the parts that make the institution flourish.

I have loved these stories since they were written and am delighted that Audible is making them available! Please continue to bring these older gems to a new audience.

Once again!

The book was way better than the movie, in character development and story depth. I highly recommend this one!

Great book… best narration I’ve ever heard!

This was a really fun book. It really was a page turner, so to speak, for me…I couldn’t stop listening!!! I looked forward to listening to it every day and was sad when it was over! The narrator is awesome. Really got into it! Highly recommend…will be looking into authors other books.

Reunited

I recall reading this many years ago - it still holds up today and the narrator was very good.
