#REDIRECT[[Places/Airport#Differentiated terminal places]]
[[File:LAXterminals.png|thumb|400px|right]]If the airport has differentiated access for arrivals and departures, or if it has multiple terminals, additional '''point''' places should be added for these destinations. This is especially important when the arrivals and departures are on different levels. Ensure the access roads for these different levels are mapped separately, otherwise the correct navigation will not be given.
 
Adding separate point places enables users to obtain more specific navigation instructions. Name these places using the airport code in its primary name followed by a descriptor in title case. Examples include:

Use of the airport code is important, since using a longer name could cause the descriptor to be cut off in the search results display. If an airport does not have an IATA code, use the FAA identifier in these names. Alternate names can include other names for the airport, along with the descriptor. Again add all relevant information, and link external results that pertain to these specific terminals or destinations.
