Lasttime I reported on an airline survey. Now AWST has an article
about an airport survey conducted by J.D.Powers, which will presented
at the Paris airshow.
The survey was ccompiled from 9024 passenger interviews in 2004.

Here are the top 10 airports:

Singapore Changi - SIN
Hong Kong Intl. - HKG
Pitsburgh Intl. - PIT
Calgary Intl. - YYC
San Antonio Intl. - SAT
Austin Bergstrom Intl. - AUS
Boise airport - BOI
Cincinnati Intl. - CVG
Indianapolis Intl. - IND
Portland Intl. - PDX

Seriously, I thought Sydney should have been in the top 5 at least.

Surely the new Kuala Lumpur must be the world's number one?

I'll add to that by starting the worst airport list:

1) San Juan, Puerto Rico - Motto: "Our employees will do everything in our
power to make your trip worse."
2) Miami, Florida - Motto: "Designed by idiots to make sure everyone walks
at least 5 miles."

Kuala Lumpur is very modern and clean, but it has no heart.
Hong Kong is nicer, but Changi is the best for me: Many shops in tasteful
lounges, nice foodcorners, outside gardens in the transit area, a yakuzi on
the roof top......

Now here's a list that really makes no sense!

Just 9024 passengers were interviewed? And based on that they have
compiled a top 10 list of airports based on the personal experiences of
just 9024 passengers?

Calgary Intl has everything right where it needs to be, but it's not top 10
material. I'm baffled by the number of US airports and surprised by the
lack of European airports. Makes one think, doesn't it?

So many people and organizations have been working so hard to make
Amsterdam-Schiphol live up to its international status, but it didn't even
make a simple top 10. Odd.

If this was s survey of Flight Simulator users, I'm sure that #1 on the
list would have to be Meigs Field, KCGX.

Let us all pause a moment and remember what was probably the first airport
we flew out of (at least I can say it was in my case).

Outside gardens in the transit area - are you referring to the Cactus Garden
where all the smokers go to chain smoke before reboarding?

Those cacti must be hardly plants - I went back inside the terminal to save
myself from the effects of passive smoke poisoning.

It is a clean, modern terminal despite the above observation.

Oh come on, Heathrow would surely be at the top of the bottom. Man what a
stinky dump.

Nope, my favorite airport would be anything designed by Bill Melichar,
or however you spell it. That man can design airports!

LOL.. good point.

But, if the few stinky bars and food service places close down at 7:00 pm
and everyone treats you with distain.. you know you are in Puerto Rico!

Yes, I admit, that is the negative side of it.
