It takes place in an airport on an island. Airplanes can be seen parked and taking off. Sunshine Airport is themed and named after ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. [[Shine Sprite]]s are visible throughout the course. The course physics are altered in 200cc, with the ramps with boost panels propelling players at a shorter distance. The jetliners that are all around the airport resemble the [[wikipedia: Boeing 737|Boeing 737]], [[wikipedia: Boeing 747|Boeing 747]], and [[wikipedia: Boeing 777|Boeing 777]] series of aircraft. | ||

After a hairpin turn, players will exit the terminal by taking a jump onto the Tarmac. After this, there is a small jump over a conveyor belt, after which the track proceeds under a 747. Once passing under the 747, a ramp leads to a raised track which then turns left. The track then splits into two alternate paths; one where a jump can be taken onto the wing of a plane, proceed through it and come out on the other wing, or one where the jump is not taken so the player drives under the plane. Shortly after, players will take a left turn, and then hit some boost panels leading to a gliding section, where a plane flies over the lead racer. This plane changes every lap. The gilding section travels up into an anti-gravity platform suspended in the air, which loops around a three quarter turn, into to another gliding section. Players descend, land on a helicopter pad outside the terminal, then turn left and re-enter the terminal. There is one last right turn to the finish line. | ||
