Las Vegas Harry Reid International Airport (LAS).
★★★½
Air travel

Vegas’ airport doesn’t have much in common with Vegas,except one thing

The main entry point for the glitzy city,the airport doesn’t go for over-the-top Vegas razzle dazzle. But it does contain more than 1000 slot machines.

Marseille Airport,France.
★★★★
France

This airport aims to have no one wait more than 10 minutes. It succeeds

Marseille in France has more than 10 million passengers a year,but its setup looks well-equipped to handle many more.

Los Angeles

It’s not Changi,but this notorious US airport has improved immensely

The upgrade of LAX’s Terminal 3 has addressed many of the pain points that make flying domestically in the US such a gruelling experience.

Indoor palm trees are a reminder you’re in the Middle East.

Bring cash to avoid queues,crying kids at this bureaucratic airport

Cairo airport handles 26 million passengers a year. Allow time (and patience) for its lengthy security – better still,bring cash.

★★★★
Thailand

This new airport is the gateway to Thailand’s emerging beach hotspots

Dublin Airport is as grey as the country’s skies.
★★
Dublin

This dismal airport is confusing and charmless

Brace yourself. This overcrowded airport is gloomy and tired,and by the time you board your plane,you will be,too.

Siem Reap.
★★★★★
Cambodia

South-East Asia’s newest airport is sleek,shiny and cavernously empty

The airport was built to sustain 7 million passengers a year,but is running at about 50,000. Hopefully,it will be a case of build it and they will come.

Airport review:Forget the rankings,this is truly the world’s best airport

Doha is slick and modern and very pretty,but Changi is streets ahead in terms of its dining,shopping and entertainment options.

New Chitose Airport in Hokkaido.
★★★★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.
