Define data

airports_df = pd.merge(airports, counts, left_on='AirportID', right_on='SourceID', how='left')

# Select only US mainland airports & convert from Mercator to Latitudes/Longitudes
airport_points = gv.Points(airports_df, ['Longitude', 'Latitude'])[-170:-50, 0: 50]

# Declare nodes, graph and tiles
nodes = gv.Nodes(airport_points, ['Longitude', 'Latitude', 'AirportID'],
                 ['Name', 'City', 'Connections'])
graph = gv.Graph((routes, nodes), ['SourceID', 'DestinationID'], ['Source', 'Destination'])
tiles = gv.tile_sources.OSM

# Select 50 busiest airports
busiest = list(routes.groupby('SourceID').count().sort_values('Stops').iloc[-50:].index.values)
busiest_airports = graph.select(AirportID=busiest, selection_mode='nodes')
