The World Airport Awards are considered the most prestigious accolades for the
airport industry voted by customers in the largest annual global airport
customer satisfaction survey. The evaluation took place between August 2020
and July 2021. It is the sixth time in over twenty years of the award’s
history that two airports from the former Yugoslavia have entered the top ten
of any category, which includes the world’s best airport, most improved
airport, airport with the best staff, best security and best transit airport,
to name a few. According to Skytrax, the survey and awards process is
independent and guaranteed free of any airport influence or interference in
final results. It evaluates customer satisfaction across 39 key performance
indicators for airport service and product – from check-in, arrivals,
transfers, shopping, security and immigration, through to departure at the
gate.
