Port Harcourt International Airport, Rivers State, Nigeria Ranked The Worst In The World

Nigeria’s Port Harcourt International Airport ranked “world’s worst airport” in 2015 by travel website The Guide To Sleeping in Airports.

Sleeping in Airports’ readers were asked to judge facilities in four categories: comfort, conveniences, cleanliness and customer service.

Respondents reportedly complained about unpleasant and unhelpful staff, alleged corruption, a severe lack of seating, broken air-conditioning and the fact that the arrivals hall was inside a tent.

“The good news is that some areas of the terminal have been recently renovated, meaning you can expect actual walls, floors and windows,” says the website.

“Though it is a far cry from reasonable, improvements are being made.”
