Quick Answer

FlightLogic rates 60 major airports on a 0–10 scale using three pillars — on-time performance, passenger experience, and facilities — plus a separate lounge score. Top-rated: Changi (SIN) at 9.6/10. Each guide includes Quick Answer summaries, FAQs, terminal info, and lounge details optimised for search and AI citation.

Airport scoring methodology

FlightLogic airport scores combine on-time performance (departure reliability from OAG and passenger reports), passenger experience (staff helpfulness, queue times, cleanliness, wayfinding), and facilities & comfort (dining, retail, seating, amenities). Lounge quality is scored separately and does not affect the overall airport score. See full methodology.
