It says something when a 101 things to do in Singapore guide lists “visiting the airport” as one of its suggestions. Changi Airport never fails to impress – it’s the world’s fifth most luxurious airport, most Instagrammed, best for shopping, and also the fourth busiest aviation hub in the world. And now, it has a brand new accolade under its belt – the world’s best for food

A recent report by the digital marketing agency SEO for Restaurants compiled data across airport websites and Google Maps to find out which airports have the best variety, quality, and pricing of food, giving each an overall score out of 100.

Coming up top with a score of 87.79 is Singapore’s Changi Airport, which offers the highest proportion of dining options per the number of passengers it accommodates. And that’s considering that the airport handled a whopping 67.7 million passengers in 2024. 

And it’s not just about the quantity of food choices – Changi Airport also boasts plenty of affordable and reasonably-priced dining options across its terminals. 

Following behind Singapore are Zurich Airport in Switzerland at second place, and Tokyo’s Haneda Airport at third. Interestingly, the report finds that Asian airports provide better value and quality in terms of food and dining compared to other continents.
