Port Harcourt Airport Was Named “Worst Airport In The World 2015”

Port Harcourt Airport Was Named “Worst Airport In The World 2015”

While Changi International Airport, Singapore, was named the best, Port Harcourt International Airport was named the worst international airport in the world for the year 2015.

Of the 10 worst international airports in the world, the Nigerian airport was the only African airport on the list.

In a report published by CNNMoney and released by The Guide to Sleeping in Airports – an internationally respected travel website – the other airports on the list were from Asia, Europe and the Middle East.

The survey, which had qualifying responses from 26,297 well-travelled respondents, put Cape Town International Airport, South Africa, as the best airport on the continent.

According to the survey, the Nigerian airport is riddled with unpleasant and unhelpful staff, alleged corruption, a severe lack of seating, broken air-conditioning and the fact that the arrivals hall is loacted inside a tent.

The website said the good news, however, is that “some areas of the terminal have been recently renovated, meaning you can expect actual walls, floors and windows. Though it is a far cry from reasonable, improvements are being made.”

Here are the worst and best airports in the world for 2015, according to the report:
