Changi Airport Named As The World's Best Airport by PDPGuy: 6:47pm On Mar 22, 2018
Singapore's Changi Airport is still the world's best airport, topping the list for the sixth year in a row.

The announcement was made at the Skytrax World Airport Awards held in Stockholm, Sweden on Wednesday.

It's the ninth time Changi has claimed the title since 2000, when the awards were first introduced.
South Korea's Incheon Airport, Tokyo Haneda in Japan, Hong Kong and Doha Hamad rounded out the top five.

But the crown cannot be knocked from Changi, which continues to make improvements to passenger experience, such as the new $944 million Terminal 4, which opened in November last year.

The terminal has a capacity to serve 16 million passengers a year, taking Changi's overall capacity to 82 million and placing it among the world's busiest airports. The terminal covers about 225,000 square metres, which is roughly the size of 27 football fields.

It has a huge LED screen to keep passengers entertained as they pass through security. Once inside, they can buy souvenirs from one of the 62 shops, and there are 19 food and beverage stations, including a "live roti prata station", where a chef will whip up the popular Indian pancake on demand. And if that doesn't keep them entertained, maybe the live theatre production will.
The full list of winners below:

1 Singapore Changi

2 Incheon

3 Tokyo Haneda

4 Hong Kong

5 Doha Hamad

6 Munich

7 Centrair Nagoya

8 London Heathrow

9 Zurich

10 Frankfurt
