The J.D. Power 2025 North America Airport Satisfaction Study, now in its 20th year, highlights airports delivering the highest levels of passenger satisfaction across Mega, Large, and Medium categories. Based on traveler feedback across seven key areas – including ease of travel, terminal facilities, airport staff, and food, beverage, and retail – the study highlights the factors that help airports stand out as passenger numbers reach record highs.

This year’s findings show that improvements to airport facilities, better food and retail options, and smoother security experiences are driving passenger satisfaction.

Michael Taylor, managing director of travel, hospitality and retail at J.D. Power, “A big part of this recent increase in passenger satisfaction is due to recently completed improvements in many airport facilities themselves.”
