Travelers aren’t complaining about layovers at Singapore’s Changi Airport (consistently ranked the best in the world) thanks to its movie theaters, rooftop pool, hot tub, and butterfly garden. Yet in the United States, there isn’t an airport within the Top 30 of the World’s Best Airports. Kris Van Cleave looks at efforts to update America’s air terminals in such major cities as Los Angeles, Chicago and Salt Lake City, and talks with New York Governor Andrew Cuomo about his ambitious, multi-billion-dollar effort to modernize New York City’s notoriously antiquated LaGuardia Airport.

And the airport staffs are very bad in certain airports. They are not polite or friendly to the travellers especially to foreigners.
We don't need distractions at airports, we need an air transit system that is efficient, reliable, and gets you where you're going on time. Want to improve the passenger experience? Keep passengers from having to spend so much time at airports!
PS: All these "experiences" and "amenities" cost money, which airports pass on to airlines, then airlines pass on to passengers.
As long democracy runs it wont upgrade

😩" ' PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS! ' …. Not everywhere needs or will get a Changi-style airport. Regardless, the answer for the USA isn't as simple as just saying ' rebuild our airports ' . Why? For one, not every U.S. region has a local or regional airport. Most that do still lack abundant flight service unlike the major hubs. Like it or not, ' Uncle Sam ' will only do so much despite the bipartisan Infrastructure package. If our communities want updated airports, then it's far past time for our local private sectors to get more directly involved. Otherwise, little to nothing will change. We the People endlessly complain about raising taxes and the airlines won't pay for improvements outside the profitable major hubs they serve. Therefore, Who's going to pay for the rebuilding? "
American 🇺🇸!!!
Again where are going get this MONEY from!!!!
Airport industry need the following!!!
Pilot’s
airport workers
Security on there network infrastructure!!!
These monies have been allocated from previous presidents before Trump Barack Obama Bush Trump and now everybody wants more money thrown!!!
Our future children are gonna be paying for this and this is where I say we have no plan with this president when it comes to fixing things in a proper correct common sense in logical way!!!
Wake Up American 🇺🇸!!!
God bless Us All!!!
There is literally nothing special about Indianapolis airport.
No swimming pool
Don’t want the government getting paid to touch us up
After experiencing sexual assault I don’t wanna fly until TSA gets their effing hands off us
It's not just airports. International Airliners are also way better than the American ones. US Airliners are a joke compared to the products offered by airliners outside the United States.

Memphis international airport
if hope you are watching this and paying very close attention to this.
She meant private investors I am sure the government can't afford it!
Yeah but Singapore is tiny, we would have to do that to lots of airports…some of them are in the middle of nowhere…just no point.
Malls aren't dying they're just becoming Airports.
The US should be ashamed of its airports and railways.
It would make sense to upgrade our airports. The US is the busiest country in terms of air traffic in the world.
Trump said this before he was elected.
If you want to see some of the most beautiful terminals in the world, go look at the American train stations. They are wonderful and they were built by the railroads, not by tax payers dollars. The tax subsides of the government to aviation have destroyed the railroad infrastructure.
Airport planners must put people's experience first and build an airport around it.
US airports fail in this aspect.
Go to JFK I prommise you it’s the best
For some optimism, we made a video ranking the TOP TEN US Airports. LAX did NOT make it. But Burbank might've…
