Noi Bai airport is in Best & Worst Airports in the World, According to Business Travellers

Removed from a familiar home setting and waited for the crowds and security rituals of the airport, the business traveller soon desires something more. Some comfort space for themselves, decent food and drink and a pleasant environment to pass the time as painlessly as possible.

This need for niceties is one reason that business class travel exists.  But with more planes leaving the runways and consumer air travel becoming the normal, airlines created a new tier of comfort to compete for that lucrative business market. Today, a business class seat is still a nice place to enjoy the time.

These spaces are managed by a hodge-podge of private companies and underpaid service staff, dealing with a fast through traffic of stressed customers. They make their money from needs, not preferences — desperation, not desire — and it shows. In our new study, we found that business travellers give only 12 airports in the whole world a rating of more than 5/10. And who knows the landscape better than business travellers?

The team here at BusinessFinancing.co.uk wondered which airports are making the best of it.

To find the best and worst ones in the world, we collated all passenger reviews for major international airports from Airline Quality and calculated the average rating from reviewers categorised as “business travellers.” The last step was to rank the top-rated airports globally, by continent, and in the U.S. and UK.
