Airport scoring methodology

FlightLogic airport scores combine on-time performance (departure reliability from OAG and passenger reports), passenger experience (staff helpfulness, queue times, cleanliness, wayfinding), and facilities & comfort (dining, retail, seating, amenities). Lounge quality is scored separately and does not affect the overall airport score. See full methodology.
