Another day, another reason to brag about Tampa International Airport. Yes, TPA is not only the best local spot to follow on Instagram, it’s also the best airport in North America for its size, according to Airports Council International, a leading industry organization.
The prestigious 2019 Airport Service Quality Award, which is based off of thousands of passenger surveys throughout the year, is considered one of the industry’s highest accolades, with nearly 499 airports participating across 95 different countries.

“Tampa Airport’s goal is to provide our guests with the highest level of customer service each and every day,” said Airport CEO Joe Lopano. “As the gateway to the west coast of Florida, we want our guests’ first and last impression of our region to be a memorable one. I am incredibly proud of the team who made this impressive accomplishment possible and I am grateful for their tireless hard work in making this airport run smoothly.”
Listen, I’d like to say that TPA is the BEST airport in North America of any size. The food, the service, the shopping, the stellar views, and continuous activation of the aviation community make it unlike any airport out there.
