With the news that New York’s crummy LaGuardia Airport is to be rebuilt, Simon Calder brings you those other airports that may be worth a wide berth
5: Jomo Kenyatta, Nairobi
Africa has some excellent hub airports, including Addis Ababa and Casablanca, but Kenya’s main gateway is not up to the job.
4: Geneva
Forget the stereotype of Swiss efficiency: the rapid growth of passenger numbers at the British traveller’s key Alpine airport has not been matched by much-needed investment.
3: Sheremetyevo, Moscow
Built for the 1980 Olympic Games, and heading downhill ever since.
2: Fiumicino, Rome
Even before the fire in May that cut capacity, the Italian capital’s main airport was a confusing shambles.
1: Charles de Gaulle, Paris
The layout of Continental Europe’s leading hub is bizarre, and even same-terminal transfers are awful at Air France’s base.
