 For the fourth straight year, Airports Council International (ACI) recently named Minneapolis-St. Paul International (MSP) the Best Airport in North America in the 25-40 million passenger category.
Airports are scored based on customer surveys conducted at airports in 91 countries around the world. Customers answer questions about 34 key performance indicators to measure their satisfaction with their airport experience. Surveys are conducted through ACI’s Air Service Quality program, the industry’s leading airport customer experience benchmarking tool.
“It is gratifying that year after year travelers rate Minneapolis-St. Paul International higher than any other airport of its size in North America and among the very best in the world,” said Metropolitan Airports Commission CEO Brian Ryks. “I credit MSP’s continued strong performance not only to the very talented workforce at the Metropolitan Airports Commission, but also to the effective partnerships the Commission has built with airlines, concessionaires, federal agencies, the Airport Foundation MSP and many other organizations operating MSP. At the end of the day, MSP stands out because of the 21,000 people who work there, take pride in their airport and provide the high quality experience travelers want.”
