These are the world’s most instagrammed airports

New Yorkers love to Instagram, and the Big Apple’s very own Shake Shack which has a particularly stylish airport outlet also features largely, as well as the New York subway connection.

Wicks said this airport is enjoying a strong presence on Instagram. “Love it or loathe it, Urs Fischer's ‘Giant Teddy Bear’ dominates as a point of interest in the departure terminal, as does the giant moving walkway for transfer passengers between concourses A and E,” said Wicks.

It has a healthy amount of tagging on Instagram with more of a focus on aircraft on the runway than within the terminal.

It is one of the busiest in the world and also enjoys frequent tagging on Instagram. There’s a trend for food images, particularly a good British breakfast, along with departure lounge drink and passport shots. Lines of airline livery photographs reflect the airport’s position as a global hub

The iconic LAX sign is a popular feature on Instagram, and it’s probable that the concentration of celebrities that pass through this airport contribute to the quantity of tags. “Outside of an awards show, it’s possibly one of the most opportune locations for star spotting,” said Wicks.

This airport is an Instagram star, in spite of the fact that the airport has no official Instagram channel of its own. In 2012 it was named the most Instagrammed location in the world. It’s most photographed area is the vaulted concourse, along with the intricately designed Buddhist Pagoda. The airport’s designers have successfully incorporated local Thai culture into the overall experience which travellers are clearly impressed with.

This is supremely popular among Instagrammers, regularly presenting travellers with innovative installations, rooftop sunflower gardens and annual festival celebrations for Christmas and Chinese New Year. Possibly one of its most photographed features is the unique Kinetic Rain installation.
