• get_airport_info(airport_code: str) -> dict: Returns information about the specified airport.

  airport_info = airports.get_airport_info('KLAX')
  

• search_airports(query: str) -> list: Searches for airports that match the specified query.

  airport_list = airports.search_airports('Los Angeles')
  

• get_nearby_airports(latitude: float, longitude: float, radius: int) -> list: Returns a list of airports near the specified latitude and longitude within the specified radius.

  airport_list = airports.get_nearby_airports(33.9425, -118.408056, 10)
