The World's 10 WORST Airports Revealed by ducii: 6:08pm On Oct 20, 2014
1***Islamabad Benazir Bhutto International Airport (Islamabad)-
The 2014 Guide to Sleeping at Airports named Islamabad Benazir Bhutto International Airport the very worst after tourists were asked to rate their airport experiences based on comfort, facilities, cleanliness and customer service.
One customer likened Pakistan's Islamabad Benazir Bhutto International Airport to 'a central prison' adding: 'Many of the touts and taxi drivers loot people at the airport and outside'.Tourists also criticised the absence of crowd control, 'pervasive corruption', inconsistent security checks and the overall lack of cleanliness and technology.

2***Jeddah King Abdulaziz International Airport (Saudi Arabia)
Saudi Arabia's Jeddah King Abdulaziz International Airport came second on the list, with travellers blaming the lack of services, rude immigration officers, lengthy queues and uncomfortable metal chairs.

3***Kathmandu Tribhuvan International Airport (Nepal)
Nepal's Kathmandu Tribhuvan International Airport was voted third in the annual survey, and was described as 'a bus station in an impoverished neighboThe lack of cleanliness was a again particular concern, as was the lack of soap, air-conditioning and filthy smoking room.

4***Ninoy Aquino International Airport (Manila)
After three years at the top of the worst airport lists, Manila's Ninoy Aquino International Airport saw a slight improvement after coming fourth on the list following refurbishment work.
However, customers still took exception to overcrowding, lengthy queues, limited seating, unfriendly immigration officers and smelly toilets, with travellers complaining that Terminal 1 had become Asia's 'largest public sauna' when the air­conditioning broke down in April.

5***Tashkent International Airport (Uzbekistan)
Uzbekistan's Tashkent International Airport was fifth on the list, with poor crowd control the main grievance.One traveller remarked: 'The person behind you will be trying to cut in front by subtly ramming their baggage cart into the back of your legs. Hold your ground!'
Another added: 'Elbows are required should you hope to maintain your spot in line, since any form of line-up or crowd control seems to be virtually non-existent.'

6***Beauvais-Tille International Airport (Paris)
Paris' Beauvais-Tille International Airport was voted in sixth place, and described as 'cramped, rundown, debatably clean, and not particularly friendly, this airport does little more than load and unload passengers in a cargo-like fashion'.

7***Hahn International Airport (Frankfurt)
In seventh place was Frankfurt's Hahn International Airport.
Comfort levels were criticised due to the metal seats and the atmosphere was labelled 'bleak, bare-boned and not especially welcoming'.

8*** Bergamo Orio al Serio International Airport (Italy)
Italy's Bergamo Orio al Serio International Airport was given a withering verdict after coming in eighth place, with one travellers writing: 'The only way this airport could be improved would be to destroy it and rebuild.'

9***Tegel International Airport (Berlin)
Berlin's Tegel International Airport was criticised for limited seating, long queues, crowded restaurants and 'little personal space'

10***LaGuardia airport (New York)
Once likened to a 'third world country' by US Vice-President Joe Biden, LaGuardia International Airport was voted into 10th place.
Travellers repeatedly take issue with the long security lines, drab décor, poor restaurant selection, lackluster cleanliness and notoriously unhelpful staff.

Muritala Mohammed Airport Lagos Nigeria:

If you are lucky enough to escape from the hands of extortionists doubling for customs officials. You are faced with a smelly city full of dingbats that want to rob you. Then comes the terrorists in black called the Nigerian police force or worst still LASMA. They are usually rude, devoid of reason and also want to extort money.




So because they did not add MMIA, you are doing it for them. na wah for Nigerians
