A hot spot is a location on an airport movement area with a history or potential risk of collision or runway incursion, and where heightened attention by pilots and drivers is necessary.

It is easier for users to safely navigate on the airport surface if they are aware of the hot spots. Proper planning helps avoid confusion by eliminating last-minute questions and building familiarity with known problem areas.

Hot spot locations are shown on the airport diagram. The hot spot descriptions are located in the airport diagrams section of the Chart Supplement. You can find the complete list of All Chart Supplement Hot Spot Info under the heading Additional Resources on the Terminal Procedures – Basic Search page.
