Brief overview of the top 5 Ranked Airports in Europe:
Munich Airport: Germany’s Munich International Airport is well reviewed for its efficiency and ease of navigation. The airport offers up a number of entertaining activities for transit passengers, which range from tours of the airport brewery to mini golf to the Fit & Fly Spa etc.
Zurich Airport: Zurich Airport earns its place in the top spot by offering swift, easy connections and clean facilities. Additionally travelers find unique amenities that create a “soothing atmosphere”.
London Heathrow Airport: The world’s third-busiest airport and the largest of the five primary airports serving London, Heathrow is undergoing of a major renovation with the addition of a brand new Terminal 2 building.
Amsterdam Schiphol Airport: Airport gets praised for being an efficient, comfortable and friendly place. Early voters felt very strongly about the airport and would go as far as to say that “could move in here” and they “like everything about AMS” – but recent voters were less delighted. It seems that AMS is currently undergoing a renovation, which has significantly reduced the rest zone seating and comfort and may be that is why the airport has been pushed out of the coveted top 3 spot in Europe.
Frankfurt Airport: Airport offers a few great attractions and activities to enjoy your time awaiting your flight. Passengers will find relaxation zones, showers, casino, concert venue, spa, oxygen bar, terrace and children’s play zones among other facilities.
