Hamburg Airport won the Skytrax award “Best Regional Airport in Europe” for the sixth time in a row. From a global perspective, the north German airport came in second in the regional airport category.
According to Skytrax's definition, the term “Regional Airport” includes all airports that primarily offer national and continental flights, but also individual intercontinental flights. In the overall ranking of “The World's Top 100 Airports 2021”, Hamburg Airport is again listed in the top 30 of the best airports: Hamburg comes in 26th place.
“The Skytrax World Airport Award is special for two reasons: On the one hand, this award is decided by the people we have put in the focus of our actions - our passengers. Here we see that our efforts in providing a high quality of service from booking to boarding are worthwhile. Second, this award shows that our passengers have confidence in us even in times of pandemic. Our entire airport team can be particularly proud of this. Because in the past 15 months in particular, we have invested in numerous hygiene measures. The strong commitment of our employees has led to this great result. I am proud of such a motivated workforce - especially in these difficult times, ”explains Hamburg managing director Michael Eggenschwiler.
