What makes an airport a “world’s best”? High-tech facilities?
Friendly staff? Great leisure amenities? Speedy immigration service? According to Skytrax World Airport Awards, being a global travel leader means constantly striving to improve, innovate and impress. And so for 2019 — and for the seventh time in a row — Singapore Changi
Airport is crowned the world’s best aviation hub, just in time for the
opening of the much awaited Jewel Changi terminal, in April.
But Singapore was beaten by its old rival when it came to filling up
before a flight, as Hong Kong grabbed the top spot for the best airport
dining experience.Munich Airport, in seventh place on the best airport list,
was the highest ranked among airfields in Europe, sitting just one place
ahead of London Heathrow.
