Airport reviews

New Chitose Airport in Hokkaido.
★★★★½
Japan

This cramped, daggy airport is my new favourite

This isn’t a flashy, modern airport, and it doesn’t have many exciting facilities, but I love New Chitose with all of my stomach and heart.

Bring an appetite when departing from Rome’s Leonardo da Vinci Airport.
★★★★★
Italy

There is no greater airport to eat in than this one

This five-star airport delivers one of the most enjoyable airport experiences around. Just be sure to bring an appetite.

New terminal Honolulu.
★★★
Honolulu

Hawaii’s main airport terminals are 15 minutes, and 50 years, apart

Honolulu’s Terminal 2, the main gateway for international and domestic flights, opened in 1927. It was “modernised” in the 1970s.

Oslo Gardermoen Airport.
★★★
Norway

This airport has good facilities – until you’re stuffed in like herrings

Chic Scandi wood details punctuate the high ceilings, but there is frustration in the air at this Norwegian airport.

Prepare for queues to move at a glacial pace.

This might be a five-star paradise, but its airport is a dismal one star

The queues are long and sweaty, the toilets are broken and the best thing about it is the view while taking off.

Plenty of seating, but few dining options.
★★★
Lombok

This mediocre airport could do with a personality transplant

The good news is that, for most Australians who pass through, an hour is the longest you’ll have to spend here.

Incheon International Airport … plenty to amuse during a stopover.
★★★★
Seoul

It’s one of the best airports in the world - I wish I was stuck here longer

If you’re flying out of Incheon International be sure to arrive at least three hours before your flight to enjoy the facilities and entertainment.

Athens International Airport … time may pass slowly here.
★★
Greece

Greece’s main airport is cramped, overcrowded and devoid of any graces

Considering Athens airport processes 25 million passengers annually, it’s efficient enough. Just don’t linger if you don’t have to.

The sculpture Slipstream at Terminal 2.
★★★½
London

Review: This terminal at Heathrow feels spacious, even in peak season

It never feels crowded and work is a breeze at “The Queen’s Terminal”, aka Heathrow Terminal 2.

  • by Lee Tulloch
The airport has a relaxed vibe.
★★★½
Canada

The calmness of this airport will leave you relaxed

The relaxed vibe of this Canadian airport is an asset in most regards – except at security.
