Asia leads the way when it comes to the world's best airports for 2025.
UK-based air transport rating organization Skytrax celebrated the World Airport Awards in Madrid this week, polling travelers at 565 airports around the globe before naming Singapore Changi Airport the world's best for the 13th time.
Having become a destination in itself, Changi boasts numerous attractions, including a 10-story Jewel shopping mall, multiple indoor gardens and the world’s largest indoor waterfall at approximately 130 feet.
Travelers can also look forward to a theme park, theater, museum, spas and hotels, among other highlights.
In addition to World's Best Airport, Changi—which plans to invest billions over the next six years—received awards for World's Best Airport Dining, World’s Best Airport Washrooms and Best Airport in Asia.
