Metro International Airport



Metro International Airport is a two-story airport located in the city of Newburg. The address of this airport is 1000 Airport Way (as seen on the CEDA posters in Blood Harvest). It is the main objective of the Survivors in the Dead Air campaign in Left 4 Dead.

History
Before the Infection, the airport was one of the many ways out of Newburg. Though the airport is relatively small and can only handle a hand full of airplanes and flights, it helps provide access to the outside world and allows for Newburg businesses to strive and expand. There are 2 major airline companies that operate at Metro International Airport: Vector Airlines and Pangea Air.

Current Status
As the Infection started to spread throughout the city from travelers who most likely brought the sickness with them, the airport was shut down and converted into an evacuation center so that CEDA and Newburg police could evacuate citizens by plane. However, with more and more infected being reported, CEDA and the military decided to place the airport under quarantine and informed the public to proceed to another designated evacuation center in the city. The airport was finally overrun with the infected and the military decided to bomb the building to destroy the disease and stop the spread, it is now overrun and has been largely destroyed by multiple plane crashes and repeated military bombings. This is supported by the fact that the military was seen bombing Infected in Left 4 Dead 2 and that the Survivors will occasionally comment that the airport was bombed. Some Infected inevitably got through during the panic, causing the military to abandon all efforts there and employ a "Scorched Earth" policy to Newburg and its airport. A note: it was probably a way to prevent people from flying on an airplane, immune or not, but they didn't know how to distinguish carriers from non-carriers and bombed the airport as a way to prevent the infection from spreading further into the world.
