Add dates to information given on flights

The article mentions that flights begin November 9 or end September 2nd, but it doesn't mention what year. I don't know whether this is up-to-date or out-of-date. If adding any information like that, please add the year as well as the month.--Gloriamarie (talk) 01:52, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

It's WP:Airports policy not to list the year if the service is ending/beginning within 1 year of that date. Therefore, every destination that is beginning/ending on or before July 6, 2009, will not have a date listed. All destinations listed September 2 and November 9 will begin/end on September 2 or November 9, 2008. Sox23 05:53, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

All dates that do not have a year are located within the current year, any dates in any other years, the year is included, all dates are in the future, none are in the past. -- SmthManly / / 08:05, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

Error

The article states the airport is located in Dania Beach. It is not and can be verified by going to the Broward County Property Appraisers website (BCPA.NET) then clicking on Maps & Aerials and click on "city limits" and zoom in over the airport and you will see it's a County Regional Facility meaning it belongs to unincorporated Broward County and is not within any city boundaries. Dania borders the property.

• Oppose - Per same MOS:ENDASH reasons as given for other hyphen<->en-dash moves. PaleAqua (talk) 03:26, 15 November 2012 (UTC)

  MOS, and MOS:DASH has no bearing on the spelling of airports. This airport is spelled with a hyphen. The FAA uses a slash, but in common use a hyphen is more common than a slash. The airport website uses a hyphen. I have not researched the official name but it is moot, as a hyphen is the most common spelling. Out of 9,000 airports around the world, none use an endash. The MOS tells us how to construct sentences, and style things, (Manual of Style) not how to spell things, and does not affect content. Apteva (talk) 05:51, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
