1. Aéroport international Princess Juliana de Saint-Martin (SXM), Antilles
Vous avez dit:
"It's a gorgeous approach over the clear blue sea, white sand beach with hills in the background. The beach goers can almost touch the landing gear as planes make their landing. It's unbelievable, a aircraft lover's dream. No where else in the world can you get so close to the variety of aircraft. Anything from a 747 to a twin otter."
Ce que le jury a dit:
Patrick Jephson (Editor of Hawker Beechcraft Journey magazine): "Landing among the sun-loungers. Always a thrill."

3. Aéroport international de Los Angeles (LAX), États-Unis
Vous avez dit:
"The approach to LAX is quite stunning, especially at night. The city of Los Angeles spreads out to infinity below the aircraft like a blanket of stars. Daytime, passengers can gawk at the city surrounded by the desert, mountains, and the ocean."
Ce que le jury a dit:
John Bevan (General Manager, Spafinder Europe): "I was blown away by the views and sheer size of it all."

4. Paro (PBH), Bhoutan
Vous avez dit:
"A truly unique approach towards touchdown between two valleys. Awesome, thrilling experience."
Ce que le jury a dit:
Peter Myers (Reuters Business Travel): "Landing at Paro is the first of many hair-raising experiences the adventurous visitor to this berserk Shangri-La-esque kingdom will likely be faced with. The aircraft weaves precariously through colossal never-summitted mountains, buffetted by treacherous winds, and before touching down comes dastardly close to taking a few picturesque roofs of nearby houses."
