Apologies if someone else has already posted this:

Do the fees paid by the commercial airlines completely cover the
costs of building and operating airports and the air traffic
control system?

If not, then passengers are also subsidizing commercial aviation.

For the most part, that is called fares.

How do fares cover the cost of building and operating the airports
and air traffic control system other than through fees that are
included in those fares?

Significants parts of the fares go to expenses like landing fees and leases.

And do those "significant parts" cover the cost of building and
operating the airports and air traffic control system?

questions.

What makes you think my question was rhetorical?

If the OP had simply answered the question directly, the thread would
have stopped at one.
