Many of us have undoubtedly been lost somewhere, and it’s frustrating which we don’t know.
As increasing numbers of people visit an area, demand for hotels, entertainment, retail, shopping, and many more is rising.
You’re better prepared to see the biggest and busiest airports if you plan to visit North America.
If you are considering other countries, here is the list of the top 10 largest airports in the world:
10. Suvarnabhumi Airport

Suvarnabhumi Airport is Southeast Asia’s biggest international airport.
The airport, in fact, is just one of two international airports in Southeast Asia to be included in this list.
It serves as the main hub for several prominent Asian airlines, including Bangkok Airways and Jet Asia Airways.

During World War II, it functioned as a U.S.A.F before it became an international airport.
Located in Heliopolis, it serves as the primary hub for two of Egypt’s largest airlines, EgyptAir and Nile Air.

It now serves only for civil aviation purposes and serves the highest number of passengers in the overall Middle East.
8. Shanghai Pudong International Airport

All the features the airport provides ranks it among the best international airports in the world.
7. George Bush Intercontinental Airport

George bush intercontinental airport is United Airlines’ second-largest passenger hub, just behind Chicago, Illinois, O’Hare International Airport.
United Airlines is most important airlines in United States with some of the biggest passenger planes like Airbus A380 in service.
It has five terminals and 130 gates with a distance of 1.5 miles (2.4 km) from Terminal A to Terminal D, covering 250 acres (1.0 square km).
It’s one of the top 10 airports in the world because of efficient air traffic management, which results in fewer flight delays.
6. Beijing Daxing International Airport

Beijing Daxing International Airport is the second-largest single airport terminal in the world to be built with a 700,000 m2 (7,500,000 square ft) airport facility in Beijing.
Following almost 5 years of construction facility, it has cost around US$11.4 billion.
The terminals were executed by the Beijing Institute of Architectural Design (BIAD) and designed by British architects Zahá Hadid Architects, French planners ADPI. The central hub consists of six curved spokes.
5. Dulles International Airport

Washington Dulles International Airport, named after John Foster Dulles, the 52nd Secretary of State, is one of three main major airports in the Baltimore-Washington region.
It’s the biggest of the three, but in terms of served travelers, it’s last.
In 2016, Washington Dulles International Airport handled nearly 22 million passengers.
Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport had 23.6 million travelers, while Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport had 25 million flights.
The airport occupies approximately 5,200 hectares of land, although not all space is used for amenities at the airport.
4. Orlando International Airport

Orlando International Airport is Florida’s busiest and biggest airport considering by size and air traffic.
The airport acts as Silver Airways’ headquarters and Frontier, JetBlue, Southwest, and Spirit’s focus city.
Southwest is the biggest passenger carrier of the airport.
The airport is also a major global gateway to Florida, with over 850 weekly passengers on 44 different airlines. There are two main airports in the Orlando area: Orlando International Airport (MCO) and Sanford International Airport (SFB).
3. Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport

Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport is America’s second-largest global airport and third-largest international airport.
In terms of passenger traffic, it is the 11th busiest international airport in the world, handling around 65.6 million passengers in 2016, the biggest number ever reported in the airport’s history.
The airport comprises 6,963 hectares of land, making it bigger than Manhattan.
It has five operating terminals, one being developed, and seven concrete paths.
The airport is so big that it has its own ZIP code for the post office and maintains its own police, fire protection, and medical emergency services.
It is one of the busiest airports in the state of Texas and one of the largest commercial airports in the United States of America.
2. Denver International Airport

Denver International Airport is America’s biggest international airport, with nearly double the size of Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport.
It includes an overwhelming 13,570 hectares of land, dwarfing on this list all the other airports earlier listed.
We can observe a pattern here that almost half the largest airports in the world are located in the United States.
Denver International Airport is Frontier Airlines’ and Great Lakes Airlines’ primary hub.
Denver airport earns around $26.3 billion for the administration, with six concrete runways.
It is one of the busiest in the world, handling 58 million visitors in 2016, which in terms of passenger numbers.
By contrast, the world’s busiest airport, Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, almost doubled that figure the same year.
Even Los Angeles International Airport can’t handle this amount of passengers.
This airport ranks as one of the the best international airports in the world.
1. King Fahd International Airport

I don’t know why it is called an airport, it should be declared as a state or province.
King Fahd International Airport is the biggest airport in the world by size in 2020.
The complete area enclosed by astronomical 77,600 hectares in Dammam, Saudi Arabia, leaving all the other airports on this list, in contrast, look like Lego sets.
The airport is bigger than Bahrain’s full nation, which is crazy.
But here’s the fun fact: Airport facilities use only 3,675 hectares of that space.
Yep, it uses only less than 5% of the available space. If we were going with the airport’s actual size, it would have been the smallest on this list.
King Fahd International is also the latest airport on the list–it opened in November 1999 just before the end of the 20th century.
In terms of passenger traffic, it is also the least busy, barely reaching past 10 million travelers served annually.
So we might say that the world’s largest airport is the most inefficient as well.
Hope you got all the airports around, be sure to remember their names as next time you travel there & please don’t get lost.
