My favourite airport: Changi, Singapore
What could be improved : To quote an Aamir Khan dialogue, Perfection cannot be improved. Before we can experience a difficult or uneasy situation, the team at Changi seems to have already figured out the issue and provided the solution. They are a step ahead in anticipating difficulties and I am sure they have a crack team with ears to the ground.
Other airports I like : Our business requires me to travel extensively and I like Zurich Airport. Renovation at airports can be a nightmare. I was pleasantly surprised to see how Zurich Airport handled its Terminal 2 renovation spread over years by carefully planned schedules for sub-projects before the main renovation project commenced. As for favourites in India, it is Ahmedabad airport, for sentimental reasons, as it is my home town. Mumbai airport’s Terminal 2 is elegant, spacious, but could do with a lot more efficiency.
