Test-Aankoop asked the opinion of over 11,000 travellers about airports. The international airports of Antwerp and Ostend-Bruges both received an exceptionally good appreciation for quality.

On average, Flemish airports received the highest score from all Belgian airports, with Antwerp even being ranked top five after Singapore Changi, Tokyo Narita, Porto and before Doha International Airport. Both airports scored far better than average in terms of safety, signalling and security control.

Of the 178 airports worldwide, Antwerp Airport is ranked fourth. Airport Antwerp is also the only airport in Belgium that receives 5 stars and scores better than average in terms of global satisfaction. Test- Aankoop gives a special good rating to Antwerp Airport for signalling. The participants in the survey assessed this with an exceptionally high figure of 8.2/10. Furthermore, the safety check, which is traditionally one of the least popular elements for travellers, was assessed by 7.7/10 and the overall sense of security on the Airport with 8,4/10.
