This is the third national recognition PBIA has received. PBI was honored by J.D. Power as fourth best among mid-size airport and Travel + Leisure as eighth best.
“We are dedicated to providing a superior, stress-free customer experience, and this honor shows how much travelers really value that commitment,” Director of Airports Laura Beebe said.
The publication wrote this about PBIA:
"Palm Beach’s airport is tiny next to busy rival Ft. Lauderdale; even before the pandemic, the annual passenger count was under 7 million. But that’s why it’s beloved by regulars, with some online reviewers even calling it 'quaint.' Fliers like the ease of getting in and out, the lack of lines and crowded gates, and the plentiful food and beverage options, and thanks to expanded service from airlines like Frontier and Breeze Airways, even more travelers will be able to enjoy its abundant charms. For amusement, there’s a putting green beyond security, and even a full-service spa to ease the stress of flying—though, at PBI, you may not need it."
