I see lots of videos where planes (so their pilots..) struggle while they are landing because of air conditions. so if windy air is problem for plane, why we didn’t built airports to no-wind areas at the first place?

Well, we build airports where they are needed.

There is a lot of wind around coasts

And owing to the Age of Sail, many large cities are coastal.

So it’s not a matter of windiness, it’s a matter of convenience.
