    My favorite airport has to bewith no doubt, Singapore Changi airport. It's efficient, user friendly, wonderfully designed,passengers facilities like no other and offers such a relaxed feel-good atmosphere to both arriving and departing travellers.
    Very close, I would say Hong Kong's Chek Lap Kok airport.
    In Europe, possibly Munich, Zurich and Amsterdam, however, they are still a few leagues away from the two abovementioned Asian hubs.

      I like Singapore as well because of its passenger facilities. Haneda I love because of its cleanliness.

    Well, I must not live right. Travel  as I do I never make it to the top ten.  Heathrow would be the exception. Really it's in the top 10?  My sister says Singapore Airport is a destination in itself.  She loves it there.

      Your sister is right. I was surprised about Heathrow, too, but I was there last January and it wasn't crowded as it used to be.

    Singapore Changi is definitely up there, so is Hong Kong and London's Heathrow but I'd also nominate Dubai International Airport. It's quite an experience.

      I have only been in Dubai Airport once and that was years ago so I can't really say anything. I am sure it has changed much.

      Speaking of Middle eastern airports, one to watch apparently is Doha's Hamad new airport, opened last summer. I've heard it is awesome. I travelled through Doha's old airport last April and that was a throwback to the 1960's!

    tony.abacab. I look forward to that, too. Qatar Airways offer some good deals, too.

    Southampton Airport in the UK, 25 minutes away from where I live! Takes me to Europe no problem.

      You're lucky to have an airport close to you. It is always convenient.

    Honestly, I don't know. Airport is not so important, I guess. The most vital thing is airport transfer. As for me, I always use http://kiwitaxi.com service while travelling. It is really cool and comfortable one. I can recommend it to you too

    Opinions on this are all relative, of course, but for me it's Anchorage hands down.  Employees and most other travelers are truly friendly, it has interesting art and exhibits, but the thing that makes me know that this is my favorite over even the ones I've never been in is that my little Alaskan grands' faces are steps away from my landing point.  smile  SeaTac is different on every level, mainly because I have to drive a couple of hours to see their little faces.  smile
