What is the most decorated/luxurious airport you have been to?

I don’t really know what mine is, to be honest (since I can barely remember what decor or luxury was featured in it). I would probably say though that mine is either Dubai at best

Dubai for sure, staff were really heavy handed though…

Maybe Catania airport in Sicily? I haven’t been to many nice airports.

It would definitely have to be Doha Hamad International when I flew Qatar Airways from Rome to Sydney. Truly amazing to spend a 5 hour layover in there while it was quiet. So expansive, modern and well decorated.

I really want to visit the Jewel in Singapore Changi. The waterfall and forested areas look so tranquil.

So, I’ve been to Singapore Changi Airport 12 times. I went to Jewel in June and August of last year, and it is absolutely gorgeous.

Taipei is really cool! They have an indoor waterfall somewhere in the terminal and many different shops that are very decorated.

I guess maybe Copenhagen? Not quite sure, it’s not as much luxurious as just really clean and modern. Heathrow or Barcelona maybe? I’ve been to CDG but only the budget airline terminal so that doesn’t really count

Dubai is the best. I was there in 2010 so it was a while ago but the airport looked like a palace.

Vancouver’s great, probably the best in North America.

Tokyo Haneda’s great as well, one of the best in Asia.

They’ve got this dedicated traditional shopping area in the international terminal and a great observation deck.

I’d probably have to say Pittsburgh, and hear me out on this one, but it was by some margin the most well organized, and thoughtfully designed airport I’ve been in, and the fact that it is running so far below capacity makes it even better because it’s so spacious. Ft. Lauderdale-Hollywood is visually nicer, but I’m looking forward to the new Pittsburgh International which should hopefully combine both.

Probably YYZ, extremely modern, and amazing architecture

Canadian airports are amazing. I especially like the model plane collection at YVR:

Toronto’s better though

But by far the best airport I’ve been to is Narita. Best airport restaurant ever.

Dubai and Doha.
Doha is new, awesome, huge, and has the world’s largest teddy bear. Also there’s a super nice hotel in the airport, which I stayed in in 2016, and it was to this date the nicest hotel I’ve ever been in.

Definitely Zurich Airport. MUCH smaller than FRA, CDG, and LHR which is good for connections, Super modern, great restaurants, very clean, and super fast WiFi!!! I fly SWISS every year to go to Greece (well maybe not this year ☹️), and Zurich airport is just an amazing airport!
