Top 5 Biggest Airports In The World In 2018

Whenever we travel with airplanes, we always have to depart and arrive somewhere. That somewhere is an Airport – a vital piece of aviation. Because without it, we would not be able not only to travel but to receive shipping fast enough or get real-time weather reports. Or just look at the magnificent aircraft standing, taxiing and departing at the airport, while we wait for our own flights. Some people are lucky enough to work as planespotters – taking pictures of airplanes at airports. Sounds like a dream job, eh?

An airport never sleeps, no matter what your job is. The Biggest Airports in the world never have a calm hour in their daily schedule. With passenger numbers increasing yearly, there is even more chaos. Yet airports every year try to increase their figures, trying to increase their profits. However, somehow these magnificently planned out structures manage to remain calm, even during the most stormy weather.

But which airport handled the most passengers in 2018? With 5 weeks remaining till New Year’s Eve rolls around, each Friday we will reveal the Top 5 busiest airports of 2018.

Without further ado, here are the Top 5 busiest airports of 2018:

5. Tokyo Haneda Airport

Tokyo Haneda was built in 1931 and was the largest civil airport in Japan (still is). At the time it operated a single runway when in 1939 an additional one was built. The Tokyo government planned to expand it more, but the plans were scrapped when World War 2 happened. When the Americans took over, Haneda was converted into an army base. When it was returned, it again began commercial operations.

Currently, the airport has 3 terminals: 2 domestic and 1 international one. 45 airlines from all over the world have destinations to and from Tokyo Haneda. For the past few years, it has been one of the biggest airports in the world consistently.
