Ει βούλει καλώς ακούειν, μάθε καλώς λέγειν, μαθών δε καλώς λέγειν, πειρώ καλώς πράττειν, και ούτω καρπώση το καλώς ακούειν. (Επίκτητος)

(Αν θέλεις να σε επαινούν, μάθε πρώτα να λες καλά λόγια, και αφού μάθεις να λες καλά λόγια, να κάνεις καλές πράξεις, και τότε θα ακούς καλά λόγια για εσένα).

These are the 10 best airports in the world | Fortune

DAYTONA BEACH, FLA. - For the 17th year in a row, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) has been named the most efficient airport in the world as announced by the Air Transport Research Society (ATRS) and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University at the 2020 ATRS Global Airport Efficiency Awards, which was held virtually this year, in early July.

As the busiest airport in the world, ATL served more than 110 million passengers in 2019.

The ATRS is a worldwide research network headquartered in the Robert H. Smith School of Business at the University of Maryland. The annual ATRS benchmark project is compiled, organized and hosted at Embry-Riddle’s David B. O’Maley College of Business, in Daytona Beach, Florida.

“The ATRS Airport Benchmarking Project strives to provide comprehensive and unbiased information on the best practices in the industry to help advance the overall performance of airports worldwide and we are honored to showcase the winners of this year’s Global Airport Efficiency Awards,” said Benchmarking Project Manager Dr. Chunyan Yu, professor of Air Transport Management at Embry-Riddle.

The Airport Performance Benchmarking Report provides a comparison of airport performance worldwide, focusing on productivity and operating/management efficiency, unit cost competitiveness and comparison of airport charges. Service quality is not considered in the performance measurements.

“The work of Dr. Chunyan Yu and her students crafting the annual Airport Performance Benchmarking Report is indicative of our close relationships and deep understanding of the aviation and aerospace industries,” said Dr. Shanan Gibson, professor of Management and College of Business dean. “I am proud of the exceptional work this team continues to produce and the real-world experience it provided our students.”

The 2020 ATRS Global Airport Benchmarking Project report includes 204 airports and 24 airport groups of various sizes and ownership forms in the Asia Pacific, in Europe and in North America.
