Seoul’s Incheon tops the list for the fifth year in a row

GENEVA – Asian airports, with Seoul’s Incheon top of the list for the fifth year in a row, have been voted by travelers the world’s top five for passenger service, the global airports body ACI said on Tuesday.

Singapore’s Changi was second in 2009 and Hong Kong third, both also for the second year in a row, in its annual Airport Service Quality survey, said ACI, the Geneva-based Airports Council International.

But two newcomers — Beijing and India’s Hyderabad Rajiv Gandhi International — moved into fourth and fifth place, edging out Nagoya-Central Japan International and Canada’s Halifax, Nova Scotia who held those places in 2008.
