Ever been in an airport waiting for a flight and opted for the first stale sandwich you could find, fearing it’d be the last you’d see?
Only to discover an amazing seafood bar right next to your gate?
TripAdvisor’s staff must have felt that pain, too.
Something like that, anyway, must have inspired those indefatigable travel archivists to launch dedicated pages highlighting the attractions and amenities in 200 major airports worldwide.
«Over 3.1 billion travelers pass through airports each year, with the average traveler spending 150 minutes of airport ‘dwell time’ between arriving at the terminal to the doors of the plane closing at the gate,» says Adam Medros, TripAdvisor’s senior vice president, global product.
«We want to help them quickly find things to do on the site while they’re waiting to catch a flight, or book an airport hotel when they need a place to stay.»
The travel booking and review website says its airport pages will allow users to rate restaurants, hotels, attractions, duty free stores, boutiques and lounges while also giving them the ability to find the cheapest flights to that airport.
Pages for a total of 200 airports are planned, with New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport and London Heathrow Airport launching in July.

This years’ judging panel for the ACI EUROPE Best Airport Awards was drawn from a well-respected group of independent experts including EUROCONTROL, European Commission, European Civil Aviation Conference (ECAC), European Travel Commission (ETC) and Air Transport World. ACI EUROPE counts over 450 airports in 45 European countries among its membership and this year’s competition saw a high level of entries in the competition in each category.
The Awards* cover 4 categories of airport and aims to recognise achievement in core activities such as customer service, facilities, retail, security, community relations and environmental awareness and operations.
The first award, recognising airports in the ‘under 5 million passenger’ category, went to London City Airport. The judges awarded the prize to the airport for its investments in key areas to reduce passenger-waiting time in the airport, its ability to develop long-term strategic relationships with airline partners and its commitment to environmental awareness.
Cork Airport and Tallinn International Airport were highly commended in the ‘under 5 million passenger’ category.
The winner of the ‘5-10 million passenger’ category was Cologne-Bonn Airport. The judges were particularly impressed by the airport’s innovation in customer experience, high degree of environmental action as well as its strong relationship with the local community.
The highly commended airports in the ‘5-10 million passenger’ category were Budapest Airport and Glasgow Airport.
This year’s award in the ‘10-25 million passenger’ category went to MilanMalpensa Airport. The airport won praise from the judges for its new infrastructure and enhanced services to boost passenger experience.
The highly commended airports in the ’10-25 million passenger’ category were Hamburg Airport and Brussels Airport Company.
And in the category for airports with ‘over 25 million passengers’, this year’s ACI EUROPE Best Airport Award went to London Heathrow Airport. The judges singled it out for its success in opening the Queen’s Terminal last year, its integration of facilitation operations of passengers with reduced mobility and the advanced features it has supported in air traffic management, enhancing the airport’s performance.
The highly commended airports in the ‘over 25 million passenger’ category were Amsterdam Airport Schiphol and Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport.
