Skytrax which rates airlines and airports recently announced their Top 10 airports for 2020. Yes this is a different sort of year and yes airports, like so many organizations, have been left to deal with unreasonable challenges, but they must continue in operation. And as travel resumes, passengers will once again gravitate to the airports they like and so it’s a good sign for regional travel that Asian airport again lead the world.

As usual, Asian airports dominated the list. And as we’ve come to expect, Singapore’s Changi Airport won once again. This is their 8th consecutive year as the world’s best airport.
