Receiving an outstanding score of 4.99 points with 5 denoting a perfect score, Incheon International Airport garnered the top spot with the highest points ever awarded in the survey’s history.

The airport website looked so funky.. I closed it twice thinking I opened the wrong Window LOL……Can only imagine how awesome Incheon must be!
May the fact that it is a huge airport not somehow affect the results? Or am I just particularly silly? ;)
Hello there, I have been Incheon International airport many times, and I think it is the best in the world.
In fact, it won a sixth year in a row in Feb 2011.
And ICN is still at the top of most lists for this year as well. And I read it’s undergoing an expansion that will cost over $3 billion… amazing.
