The airport's interior makes a brief appearance in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], when it is featured during the [[First Mission (GTA SA)|first cutscene of the game]]. While the interior is found to be situated in the [[Hidden Interiors Universe]], the location also comes with an unused exterior of the airport with a roadway, appearing to resemble the airport's exterior in [[Grand Theft Auto III]]. | The airport's interior makes a brief appearance in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], when it is featured during the [[First Mission (GTA SA)|first cutscene of the game]].
