Alicante and Sevilla have been celebrated as the best airports in Europe following the recent awards announcement. Sevilla clinched the title in the five to fifteen million passenger category, demonstrating excellence among larger airports. Meanwhile, Alicante also received notable recognition, contributing to a strong representation of Spanish airports in this year’s awards.

In addition to Sevilla’s win, numerous other airports were acknowledged for their service quality. Girona-Costa Brava, El Hierro, Pamplona, Reus, and Zaragoza received praise in the category for airports serving two million passengers or fewer. Moreover, Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport was awarded for having the most dedicated staff in Europe.

El Hierro and Pamplona were specifically recognised as the cleanest airports on the continent, while Reus and El Hierro received accolades for providing the easiest overall journey for passengers. These recognitions are part of the Airport Council International’s Airport Service Quality programme, which evaluates travellers’ perceptions of airport services including accessibility and wait times.

The awards will officially be presented at the ACI World Customer Experience Summit and Exhibition, set to take place in Guangzhou, China, from the eighth to the eleventh of September in two thousand twenty-five. This event will showcase the airports praised for their commitment to enhancing passenger experiences.
