Hong Kong beats Changi as Asia's leading airport

This marks the second consecutive year that the Hong Kong airport has claimed the title.

Before the Covid pandemic, Changi Airport held the title for many consecutive years.

The sole international airport in Hong Kong spans 1,900 hectares and has been operational since 1998. The airport currently connects to 220 destinations through 120 airlines. Last year, it handled 39.5 million passengers, or 55% of the figure recorded in 2019.

Changi Airport, renowned for the world's tallest indoor waterfall, has frequently been voted among the world's best airports. It is celebrated for its state-of-the-art amenities and services, including duty-free shopping, an indoor rainforest, and luxury hotels.

The World Travel Awards, established in 1993, recognize excellence in the travel and tourism industry and are often referred to as the "Oscars of the travel industry." These annual awards are determined by votes from both travel industry professionals and the public.
