Overall, Singapore Airport took the crown as the best airport in the world for queuing times and passenger satisfaction.
TPA has implemented new efficiencies in pre-security to help passengers get to their terminals. Blue express lanes for arrivals/departures without checked bags have helped ease congestion. Ample things to do pre-security (such as taking a selfie with Phoebe the Flamingo) have also incentivized passengers to arrive early, which also helps with the overall airport experience.
