Hong Kong bags 'Best Airport' title for 10th time

Hong Kong International Airport was recognized by TTG Travel Awards.

According to government news release, Hong Kong International Airport has once again been named the world's "Best Airport" in the annual TTG Travel Awards - an award it has claimed every year since 2002, except in 2003 when the awards were not held, the Airport Authority announced today.

Airport Authority Chief Executive Officer Stanley Hui said he was delighted that the airport has built such a solid reputation as a leading international airport.

"It's a great honour to be recognised as the world's best airport again by TTG readers. Clinching the award for 10 years proves that the airport has achieved an exceptionally consistent delivery of high quality service. The award is a great testament to the tireless efforts of our 65,000-strong workforce in the airport community, who strive to offer an enjoyable airport experience to the ever-growing volume of passengers. We will continue to upgrade our facilities and services to ensure pleasant and seamless journeys for all travellers using the airport."

The TTG Travel Awards 2012 were voted by 60,000 readers of TTG's print and online publications between June and August.

The awards have been held every year since 1989, with the exception of 2003 due to the SARS epidemic.
