The B5Media network:

Best US Airports

Every year, Travel & Leisure magazine releases their survey results of the best and worst airports in America, and I thought now, right before the holidays, would be a great time to highlight these results. For most of you, if you plan on traveling during the next couple of weeks, I hope you have bought your tickets, but if not, here’s a guide to help you know what airports to avoid. As always, some Florida airports made the list. Can you guess which ones?

First of all, here’s a list of the Top 10 worst airports:

  • #10 (tie): Chicago-Midway with 25% of all flights delayed
  • #10 (tie): Atlanta
  • #8 (tie): JFK
  • #8 (tie): San Francisco
  • #6: Washington Dulles
  • #5: NY Laguardia
  • #4: Dallas/Fort Worth
  • #3: Miami
  • #2: Newark
  • #1: Chicago O’Hare with 35% of all flights delayed

and for the Top 10 Best Airports:

  • #10 LAX
  • #7 (tie): Phoenix
  • #7 (tie): Tampa
  • #7 (tie): Seattle
