Example prompt: Can you look up the airport details for LHR using AviationStack — I need the full name, city, country, timezone, and coordinates for London Heathrow?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to resolve airport codes to full metadata (name, city, country, timezone, coordinates), validate that an IATA code corresponds to a real airport, or enrich travel data with airport details. Prefer over flight-specific endpoints when airport-level data is all that's needed.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unknown IATA code returns empty results array
- Missing required parameters may return a validation error
- API key/authentication issues return 401 unauthorized
- Rate limit exceeded returns 429 too many requests
- Network timeout if the AviationStack service is unavailable
