Stories of airline hell: The 10 worst airports in the world

A Telegraph piece compiling “the 10 worst airports in the world,” based on stories from frequent flyers, highlights airports readers may want to avoid or be prepared for. The article frames the list as an entertainment take on recurrent travel “hell,” drawing on travel journalists’ recollections. It cites experiences ranging from a Greek airport where the small terminal’s crowded check-in scene was described in vivid, literary terms, to Moscow, where luggage was reportedly unloaded onto the tarmac in heavy snow. Another anecdote involves passengers forming a chain to move bags indoors after a security door was forced and alarms were triggered. The list also names major hubs including Paris-Charles de Gaulle, Sheremetyevo, and Amsterdam Schiphol.
