Denver International Airport ranked No. 1
• Top airport: The next time you experience crowded parking lots, long security lines or other perceived hassles at Denver International Airport, don't be so quick to complain.
You don't know how good you have it.
A poll released Wednesday by Business Traveler magazine ranked DIA as the best airport in North America.
The publication compiled the results of its 17th annual Business Travel Awards by asking thousands of its readers to comment on several aspects of travel. And whom better to ask: The magazine says its readers spent, on average, 49 nights in hotels last year.
• Top airline: Aside from the best airports, the poll asked travelers to vote for their favorite airlines, hotels and travel Web sites.
United Airlines, despite well-publicized cutbacks during the past three years, ranked as the best airline for North American travel. It also took top honors for its frequent-flier program, which allows customers to redeem miles for travel to destinations worldwide.
OTHER AWARDS:
• Singapore Airlines, best overall airline in the world, best airline for international travel, best first-class and economy service, and best business-class service to Asia
• British Airways, best business-class service
• JetBlue Airways, best low-cost carrier
