FOR the second year running, Changi has emerged as number two in a ranking of airports worldwide.
South Korea's Incheon International Airport is once again the top pick of over 275,000 passengers surveyed at 118 eligible airports around the world - a position it has held for the fifth consecutive year.
The bronze medal goes to the Hong Kong International Airport.
The annual Airport Service Quality ranking is done by Airports Council International (ACI), a global trade representative of airports, with 575 members operating in nearly 180 countries.
Its members, including Changi Airport, account for 96 per cent of the world's total airport traffic.
Among other indicators, travellers were asked to rank the airports based on waiting time at check-in, ease of finding their way through the airport, ground transportation to and from the airport, thoroughness of security inspection, cleanliness of washrooms as well as waiting time at security inspection, and passport and visa inspection.
