Which Is the Best Airport in the World?

Singapore Changi Airport is often considered the best airport in the world, according to an annual survey of travelers from more than 160 countries. In 2013, Changi was ranked No. 1 for the fourth time since 2000, and it has ranked among the top three each year during this time. Surveyed travelers have cited the airport’s atmosphere, which includes five specialty gardens and six rest zones for sleeping, for why it is the best airport. Changi also is purposely modeled to be child-friendly, with video arcades and playgrounds so that even local residents can bring their children to play there, which is helpful because land is scarce in the country.
