Tourists have been told the best airports to fly from across Europe if they want a stress free experience.
Experts have analysed and revealed the 10 least stressful airports across the continent to show which are the most relaxing for travellers.
Corfu tops the ranks, and Newcastle, Hannover and Menorca also make the top 10.
Least stressful airports in Europe
A new study has revealed the ten least stressful airports in Europe, with Corfu Airport coming out on top.
Airports close to the city centre with cheap parking and a relaxing space with plenty of restaurant options were considered less stressful. A customer airport rating was also used.
The research revealed all ten airports scored highly for stress-free categories - but a number of airports were marked down due to stress-inducing factors.
Corfu Airport in Greece has been named the least stressful and most relaxing airport for holidaymakers to fly from, with just 3.7 million passengers passing through annually.
Incredibly, Corfu Airport doesn’t change for parking so passengers can arrive knowing its one less expense they need to cover.
The picturesque island is just over 3km away from the city centre, despite having just a 68% rating on FlightRadar24.
Billund Airport in Norway, home to Legoland, ranks in second place, with a rating of 80%, yet features some of the most expensive parking for a week (€133.42 ).
Not all airports are as accessible as Corfu - Norway’s Trondheim airport is over 32 km away from the city centre, adding more stress for travellers.
Newcastle Airport in the UK ranks in seventh place, with high passenger numbers and being one of the most expensive airports in the index to park at, marking it down.
The airport however, scores well on the number of restaurants, has a customer review rating of 80% and is close to the centre of Newcastle which is just over 10 km away.
The two Italian airports on the index, Turin and Cagliari, rank in 6th and 9th place respectively - both with over four million annual passengers and the lowest airport ratings at 74% and 72%.
That being said, all of the top 10 least stressful airports in Europe scored over 65% as a rating on FlightRadar24, and all had under five million annual passengers, making the experience less anxiety-ridden for travellers.
The busiest airports in Europe process more than ten times the number of flyers such as Charles De Gaulle Airport in Paris, which handled almost 60 million passengers in 2022.
