The best dressed Christmas Airports
This is usually one of our favourite blogs of the year; marvelling at the creative genuis the airports come up with to make their passengers feel extra festive. The aim is to help nudge passengers that little bit closer to the festive spirit, and we hope that you get to see some of these destinations first hand! However if your travels don’t take you through an airport this December, look no further than a round up of the best dressed Christmas decorations at airports around the world!
Amsterdam Airport Schiphol
Our European neighbours have shown how it’s done with a great array of Christmas lights on show at the main terminal. The tree’s looking great again this year but we’re a little sad that Father Christmas isn’t wondering through the baggage reclaim hall with last minute prezzies this time!
Orlando International Airport
Across the pond this time to Orlando International Airport who has a stand out Christmas theme that’s certainly attracted the attention of its passengers! Many travellers are keen to snap a pic in front of the wonderful tree sitting in the terminal; their 40ft wonder has made a return for this year.
Changi Airport
Changi Airport is arguably the prettiest looking airport for Christmas lights in Asia. This year, they’ve opted for Changi Festival village for those travelling through the airport; this will an absolute dream for both kids and adults alike…
What a glow up! From now till 31 Jan, experience magical Avatar-inspired lights along the Changi Airport Connector between T2 and the Jurassic Mile. More info at https://t.co/jzfEyyCJOq. #ChangiFestiveVillage pic.twitter.com/WYPnaRdlWe
