    Manila dislodged as world's worst airport
    October 17, 2014

    Philippines Daily Inquirer/ANN - After topping the list of the world's worst airports for three consecutive years, the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (Naia) has the dubious achievement of landing only fourth this year.

    "The Guide to Sleeping in Airports," the interactive travel site which has been sticking Manila's international airport with the world's worst airport tag since 2011, this year praised the Naia, particularly its Terminal 3, for the improvements that have apparently changed passengers' experience of the airport.

    According to the travel site's 2014 survey results posted on www.sleepinginairports.net on Wednesday, Naia was "overtaken" in the worst airport stakes by Islamabad Benazir Bhutto International Airport (ISB) of Pakistan, Jeddah King Abdulaziz International Airport of Saudi Arabia and Kathmandu Tribhuvan International Airport of Nepal.

    Pakistan's ISB, which topped the list this year, was likened to a "central prison," with pervasive corruption and aggressive yet inconsistent security checks.

    The website ranks airports based on the votes cast by travelers who rate the facilities according to "comfort, amenities and overall experience."

    Most of the travelers that use the website's services are those looking to cut costs by sleeping at the airports instead of booking hotel rooms.

    "After 3 years at the top of our worst airports lists, Manila Naia saw a slight 'improvement' in its ranking as a result of increased positive votes for its Terminal 3," the blog said.

    Last August, Naia 3 started full airline operations with the completion of rehabilitation work that was 17 years in the making.

    Five international airlines - Delta Airlines, KLM, Singapore Airlines, Cathay Pacific and Emirates- have now moved to Naia 3 from the congested Naia 1 which has long been the object of ridicule in international travel sites.
