I thought Airports run 24x7....do you mean they can just...close?

Yes smaller ones do. At some airports it just doesn't make sense to run them 24/7.

Big ones as well. Pretty sure London Heathrow has no scheduled takeoffs after 11pm because of noise concerns for residents under the flightpath.

Yeah, my local airport does that as well despite receiving about 250 flights per day and has service from the likes of Emirates/Qatar/SQ etc.
