Surprise flights: an airline's bet for travelers who can't hold out on the ground
The study carried out among the international airports of 30 European capitals to assess their level of comfort and the comfort of the passengers has revealed that the Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas airport is the most pleasant in Europe.
The report, carried out by Omio, a reservation platform for train, bus and plane travel (formerly known as GoEuro), reveals that the Madrid airport stands out above the rest due to several factors: its
proximity to
the city
center
;
offer up to three
public transportation
options
;
have a
low number of cancellations
and have a
wide commercial
and restaurant offer (133 shops and 54 bars and restaurants).

Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas also has good facilities, although when it comes to
stress-
generating factors
, the Spanish airport is in the lower half of the ranking due to its
low punctuality
on flights and
relatively expensive
taxis
.
Other factors that this multi-faceted study took into account included the availability of certain services, such as
showers
, rest and relaxation areas,
charging stations,
waiting rooms and children's play areas.
FROM THE MOST TIMELY TO THE MOST STRESSING
From Omio they have wanted to share this data because "anyone who has ever traveled long distances, with long stops, will know that a pleasant airport for passengers can make a difference in a
travel experience
".
The study carried out at around thirty European airports also shows that
Copenhagen Kastrup
(Denmark) is the
most punctual
in Europe, with 95.93% of flights arriving or departing on time.
Copenhagen Kastrup Airport is the most punctual.
For its part,
London Heathrow
airport
is the busiest on the continent, with 241,470 daily passengers.
While with 140 stores,
Rome-Fiumicino
offers the best options for
shopping.
Not far behind is
Moscow Sheremetyevo
International
Airport
, which offers the largest number of dining options, with
79 bars and restaurants.
In contrast, the lower part of the table highlights the
Paris Charles De Gaulle
airport
(for being the
most stressful
in Europe) and those of
Prague, Oslo, Ankara and Podgorica
for having
no smoking areas.
