Tokyo's Haneda Airport tops cleanliness again, retains top spot in Skytrax rankings.

News Topical, Digital Desk : Haneda Airport in Tokyo, Japan, has once again established its unique global reputation. It has been selected as the world's cleanest airport for the year 2026. Significantly, Haneda has earned this title for a record 10th time.

Haneda Airport, located in Tokyo's Ota City, has been named the "World's Cleanest Airport 2026" by air transport rating agency Skytrax. The award is given in the large airport category. The ranking was based on passenger feedback and surveys conducted between August 2025 and February 2026.

Hokkaido's New Chitose Airport ranked first in the category of small airports (those with fewer than 30 million passengers). Haneda Airport is Japan's busiest airport and the world's third-busiest, handling approximately 78 million passengers annually.

What makes Haneda special?

Haneda Airport is renowned not only for its cleanliness but also for its facilities. Its international terminal (Terminal 3) is designed like a traditional Japanese street called "Edo Ko-ji," offering a unique experience for travelers.

Here, visitors can sample authentic Japanese cuisine such as soba and yakitori, as well as purchase beautifully packaged local sweets, washi paper, and handicrafts. The airport also offers excellent accommodation options, such as the Haneda Excel Hotel Tokyu and the Villa Fontaine Grand, offering travelers a comfortable stay.

To the hot spring inside the airport

Haneda Airport's most notable feature is its hot spring (onsen). Called "Izumi Tenku no Yu," this spa offers hot baths, saunas, and comfortable lounges. It also offers spectacular views of airplanes taking off.

Haneda is joined by other major names like Seoul's Incheon Airport, Singapore's Changi Airport, Tokyo's Narita Airport, and Hong Kong Airport in the list of cleanest airports for 2026. With this achievement, Haneda Airport has once again proven its global leadership in cleanliness and delivering a superior passenger experience.
