1. If Account and Aiport have master-child relationship:
There is no direct way of doing this. You need to make the "Airport Supplied" field as text area or long text area and populate it via trigger on Airport object.
Trigger should handle after insert, after update (whenever the Airport record name changes), after delete and after undelete on Airport object. This trigger will retreive the "Airport Supplied" text from Account and do manipulations like adding the airport value when a new airport is created under an account or remove from the text when an airport record was deleted etc.,
2. If Account and Airport did not have any relationship, then if you are using standard account pagelayout, then this scenario is not possible. You may need to consider the 1st point (creating master-child relation or lookup relation).
If you are using custom visualforce page for account, you can try custom lookup field in your visualforce page to open a pop-up which lists records from Airport, making it to allow multiple values into the text area field as comma separated.
