SINGAPORE — Another day, another “best airports” survey and another top rank for Changi Airport, undoubtedly one of Singapore’s crown jewels.

World of Statistics, a popular account on X (formerly Twitter) with 3.3 million followers, shared a list on Tuesday (Oct 10) of the “World’s best airports 2023”.

Changi Airport took the top spot, followed by Hamad International Airport in Doha, Qatar ranking second and Tokyo’s Haneda International Airport in Japan as third on the list.

In less than 24 hours, the post has been retweeted 1,050 times and gotten 6,030 likes and 620 replies.

X users were quick to concur, sharing their praise for “the best airport by miles” and its “stunning indoor waterfall”.

Jewel Changi Airport’s Rain Vortex, cascading down seven storeys, is the world’s tallest indoor waterfall and a popular tourist spot.

A top reply to the post read: “Changi Airport in Singapore is not just an airport, it’s an experience in itself. With its stunning architecture, efficiency and an array of amenities, it’s one of the world’s best airports.”

An X user based in the United States said: “Singapore’s airport is amazing and their airport security model needs to be adopted by all. No security checkpoints until you board your plane.”

In another top reply, one user wrote in Thai: “Changi is really good, feels organised and fast. I used to allow only 45 to 50 minutes to leave the office in time to catch the flight. Suvarnabhumi (Airport in Bangkok, Thailand) takes three hours every round.”
