Hi, I'm simply trying to obtain a network dataset for U.S. airports similar to the one found here:

I'm simply trying to create an Origins-Destination Cost Matrix. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

In addition to the resources that Bob shared, you might try looking at some data that the FAA shares via their Open Data site: https://adds-faa.opendata.arcgis.com/.  They include both airports and air traffic routes in the US, though you'll still have to construct the network from the data yourself.

Are you looking to create an Origin Destination cost matrix of air miles or highway drive miles between the airports? Just having a location of airports and connecting them with straight lines does not mean that there is any actual air service between the airports. Regards,

Thanks for replying!

Yes, miles and time in the air. The youtube link I provided in the OP includes an example of a network dataset that the author used to demonstrate how to construct an OD cost matrix. In that example, it shows which airports are connected / have air service to others. 

I was simply looking for a network dataset that someone has already constructed and was willing to share.

Thanks!
