Based on surveys from U.S. or Canadian residents who traveled through at least one U.S. or Canadian airport from\u00a0July 2020<\/span>\u00a0through\u00a0July 2021<\/span>,\u00a0Miami<\/span>\u00a0International Airport was ranked the best mega airport in\u00a0North America<\/span>\u00a0for passenger satisfaction by the J.D. Power 2021 North America Airport Satisfaction Study\u00a0SM<\/sup>, released on\u00a0September 22<\/span>.<\/p>\n

The annual J.D. Power study measures overall traveler satisfaction with mega, large, and medium North American airports by examining six factors (in order of importance): terminal facilities; airport arrival\/departure; baggage claim; security check; check-in\/baggage check; and food, beverage, and retail. This year, MIA ranked highest among mega airports in the bag claim and food, beverage, and retail categories.<\/p>\n

“We can all be proud that\u00a0Miami-Dade County<\/span>\u00a0is home to the best mega airport for customer satisfaction in\u00a0North America<\/span>!” said\u00a0Miami-Dade County<\/span>\u00a0Mayor\u00a0Daniella Levine Cava<\/span>. “MIA’s top priorities are maintaining the safety and security of our travelers and providing excellent customer satisfaction. Just last week, MIA was reaccredited by the\u00a0Airports Council International (ACI) Airport Health Accreditation program for its efforts to protect travelers and employees from COVID-19, and now it has been ranked best in class by J.D. Power for its customer satisfaction. Congratulations to the MIA team for scoring these big wins for our County and our residents.”<\/p>\n

On a 1,000-point scale, MIA achieved an overall score of 828, for a 27-point increase over 2020, when it ranked second among the busiest airports in the study. MIA improved from second to first place in the study while also becoming the busiest U.S. airport for international passengers in 2021 year to date, at 6.4 million total international travelers through July.<\/p>\n

“Our #1 ranking by J.D. Power is an encouraging sign that recent improvements at MIA are making a positive impression on our passengers,” said Ralph Cuti\u00e9, MIA Director and CEO. “Our new state- of-the-art baggage handling system, which was fully integrated last year, now doubles the speed and efficiency of baggage screening and delivery for flights in our Central and South terminals, and our dining and retail concessions continue to score high marks. This recognition would not be possible without the teamwork of our airline and concession partners and federal agencies, who are all worthy of congratulations.”<\/p>\n

The J.D. Power North America Airport Satisfaction Study\u00a0SM<\/sup>, now in its 16th<\/sup>\u00a0year, covers both departure and arrival experiences (including connecting airports), and includes travelers’ evaluations from either a departing or arriving airport from their round-trip experience.<\/p>\n
