Singapore (re)overtakes Doha: for Skytrax, Changi is the world's best airport in 2025. As many as 6 Asian airports in top 10

Change at the top in the ranking of the world's best airports by 2025, which was presented by Skytrax during the World Airports Awards ceremony held at the Passenger Terminal Expo in Madrid.

Singapore Changi bypassed Doha's Hamad International Airport and for the 13th time Has been crowned the world's best airport. Doha's reign thus lasted only one year., since the Qatari airport had undermined the Asian airport just last year.

Gardens, outdoor pagodas, a lake with water lilies, aquariums in the bathrooms: it's not Changi, but it's the most beautiful airport in the world

In contrast, the Qatar airport had led the ranking in 2024 but despite The recent expansion of its terminal and the increase in boarding gates, was relegated to second position.

Singapore has also won other awards including. 'World's Best Airport Dining' and 'World's Best Airport Washrooms.

Skytrax's top 10 ranking is literally dominated by the asian stopovers, which occupy all the top six positions in the ranking: behind Singapore and Doha were in fact placed. Tokyo Haneda, Seoul Incheon, Tokyo Narita, and Hong Kong International.

Best airports according to passengers: Fiumicino still first in Europe, three more Italians in the rankings

The top non-Asian airport is, in seventh place worldwide, Paris Charles de Gaulle (best airport in Europe), followed by Rome Fiumicino, Munich and Zurich. Three of Lufthansa Group's hubs are in the global top 10, with Vienna ranking 15th overall, while Frankfurt is out of the top 20 (even 37th).
