According to a recent survey released at the weekend by The Guide to Sleeping in Airports, a travel website that produces an annual survey to identify the world’s worst and best aviation terminals, the Benazir Bhutto International Airport, Islamabad, Pakistan tops the list of world worst airports.

Airports were rated based on overall experience as determined by travelers and facilities were judged in four major categories: comfort, conveniences, cleanliness and customer service.

From dirty floors and bathrooms to the regular request for bribes, travelers were unimpressed with the airports that made it onto this year’s Worst Airports in Africa list.

Other complaints revolved around lack of air conditioning, general navigational chaos, limited yet expensive restaurant options and questionably-effective security processes at these airports.

Other complaints revolved around a lack of air conditioning in sweltering climates, general navigational chaos, limited yet expensive restaurant options and questionably-effective security processes.

However, there were no surprises when it came to naming the best airport, with Singapore’s Changi International taking the title it’s held every year since the survey began 18 years ago. Its success is credited to the spa, pool, gym, four-story slide and movie theaters that make the airport a destination in itself.

Offering almost as many cool perks as its Singapore counterpart, South Korean’s Seoul Incheon International was named second best.

Amsterdam Schiphol and Hong Kong International Airport (last year’s third and fourth best airports) dropped out from the top five to ninth and seventh spots, respectively.

Helsinki International Airport, Munich International Airport and Vancouver International Airport wrapped up the top five.
