For a place search, you can apply a type filter from within a predefined list (airport included): https://developers.google.com/places/supported_types

The place search doesn't allow country filtering (it uses latlng + radius params instead), but using the country name as the query term should yield the correct results.

https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/textsearch/json?query=Australia&key=addkeyhere&type=airport

However, this doesn't apply to the autocomplete API so you'll probably want to grab the full text search result, cache them client-side and do your own matching/autocomplete.
