Airport reviews
★★★★½
Japan
This cramped, daggy airport is my new favourite
This isn’t a flashy, modern airport, and it doesn’t have many exciting facilities, but I love New Chitose with all of my stomach and heart.

★★★★★
Italy
There is no greater airport to eat in than this one
This five-star airport delivers one of the most enjoyable airport experiences around. Just be sure to bring an appetite.

★★★
Honolulu
Hawaii’s main airport terminals are 15 minutes, and 50 years, apart
Honolulu’s Terminal 2, the main gateway for international and domestic flights, opened in 1927. It was “modernised” in the 1970s.

★★★
Norway
This airport has good facilities – until you’re stuffed in like herrings
Chic Scandi wood details punctuate the high ceilings, but there is frustration in the air at this Norwegian airport.

This might be a five-star paradise, but its airport is a dismal one star
The queues are long and sweaty, the toilets are broken and the best thing about it is the view while taking off.

★★★
Lombok
This mediocre airport could do with a personality transplant
The good news is that, for most Australians who pass through, an hour is the longest you’ll have to spend here.

★★★★
Seoul
It’s one of the best airports in the world - I wish I was stuck here longer
If you’re flying out of Incheon International be sure to arrive at least three hours before your flight to enjoy the facilities and entertainment.

★★
Greece
Greece’s main airport is cramped, overcrowded and devoid of any graces
Considering Athens airport processes 25 million passengers annually, it’s efficient enough. Just don’t linger if you don’t have to.

★★★½
London
Review: This terminal at Heathrow feels spacious, even in peak season
It never feels crowded and work is a breeze at “The Queen’s Terminal”, aka Heathrow Terminal 2.

★★★½
Canada
The calmness of this airport will leave you relaxed
The relaxed vibe of this Canadian airport is an asset in most regards – except at security.
