Aging infrastructure coupled with booming demand for air travel have put a sometimes unbearable strain on facilities.
While it's no secret that North American airports often lack the amenities and architectural flair of their international counterparts, there are, however, a few that can hold their own.
Leading aviation reviewer Skytrax just released the results of its annual World Airport Awards, which includes a list of the best airports in North America. The Skytrax awards are based on 39 parameters including ease of access, airport comfort, cleanliness, and wait times at check-in and security screenings. Nearly 13 million travelers from 110 different countries participated in this year's survey.
