Gracias Fiona, y gracias también a Jairo por la excelente nota aclaratoria. ¿Porqué no se me ocurrió a mí buscar información sobre este aeropuerto en particular...?
Si, definitivamente el contexto se refiere al aeroparque Jorge Newbery, y por lo que yo entiendo y la información que he encontrado solo sirve vuelos nacionales y regionales (o sea, domésticos). Tanto si la mejor traducción de aeroparque es domestic airport o no, según el contexto, en este caso, y tratándose del Jorge Newbery, para mí es sin duda un "domestic airport"

Notes to answerer
Asker: Gracias Beatriz por tu respuesta. El caso es que el Jorge newbery si que ofrece vuelos comerciales nacionales y regionales, por lo que Airpark no encajaría muy bien en mi contexto.

neutral  Jairo Payan: Dices que el aeroparque es normalmente reservada para vuelos no comerciales, pero a ese aeropuerto llegan vuelos comerciales, luego o la definición que buscaste está errada o el aeropuerto Newbery está mal denominado de acuerdo con tu sustentación. Saludo

Reference information:
Domestic Aiport:

A domestic airport is an airport which handles only domestic flights or flights within the same country. Domestic airports don't have customs and immigration facilities and are therefore incapable of handling flights to or from a foreign airport.

These airports normally have short runways which are sufficient to handle short/medium haul aircraft and regional air traffic. They have in many countries not had any security check / metal detector, but such checks have been added in recent years.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domestic_airport

Regional Airport:
A regional airport is an airport serving traffic within a relatively small or lightly populated geographical area. A regional airport usually does not have customs and immigration facilities to process traffic between countries. In Canada regional airports usually service connections within Canada and some flights to the United States. A few U.S. regional airports, some of which actually call themselves international airports, may have customs and immigration facilities staffed on an as-needed basis, but the vast majority serve domestic traffic only.

Aircraft using these airports tend to be smaller business jets, private aircraft and regional airliners of both turboprop propelled or regional jetliner varieties. These flight usually go a shorter distance to a larger regional hub. For medium-size countries like France, Germany, Sweden, a regional airport is an airport used with smaller planes, even though they go to the national hub, just like flight from larger domestic airports.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regional_airport

A city airport: No meaning found

It is not a technical name to define an airport

Sólo habría que mirar a cuál de estas definiciones se acomoda el aeropuerto Jorge Newbery, que me imagino que es el aeropuerto de que hablan en Buenos Aires
