CSMIA is the only Indian airport to make the cut, this recognition underscores the airport’s commitment to constantly providing an exceptional travel experience to passengers along with world-class hospitality.
International airports have recently evolved beyond mere transit hubs, serving as complete destinations and CSMIA stands tall with offerings and experiences that redefines modern air travel for passengers with a wide range of amenities including shopping, dining, and entertainment options.
The International airports featured on the list were specifically rated on criteria such as access, check-in and security, restaurants & bars, shopping, and design. Respondents rated several international airports based on each of these characteristics. The average of the final scores then resulted in the ranking of the airports.
CSMIA attributed the accolade to the hardwork and dedication of its teams who go above and beyond every day to deliver “memorable passenger experiences”.
