What are your favourite airports?

Personally I just love Singapore's airport, it's awesome, has an aquarium at the actual airport. Also, free wi-fi all through the airport.

       yep, Changi is tops. Seoul Incheon is good too with a lovely spa and good food (if you like Korean)

I love Singapore airport the best too! I love the style of the Malaysian airport (especially the roof) and the Beijing airport is also really cool!

(New Dehli is the worst airport I have ever been to btw)

LOL, to be honest, I love travelling around Europe but take away Germany and France and our airports are pretty dire :(

Asian airports are awesome though!

   I love the grand old railway stations in Europe, more than any airport.

Really?

I've never travelled via train in Europe but my Dad said it was his favourite way to travel around Europe as a teenager, so you must be onto something!

     Yeah, it's nice if you've got the extra time to spare. Where do you go to in Europe?

I was actually happy when my plane out of Singapore got delayed because I got to explore more of changi airport :D I love walking back and forth on those super long travelators and feeling like Usain Bolt compared to all the slow normal walking people.

Has anyone ever been to those frequent flyer airport lounges? Those are the best parts of the airport. If you haven't, that is one thing you should most definitely try.

I always hear good things about the one in Signapore.

Heard of a few people that get lost in the one of the ones at Japan though.

Hong Kong International Airport is the BEST. It's pretty much an epic shopping centre too. There are a gazillion flat escalators around the whole airport, which is awesome.
