Aruba is known for its sunny skies, sandy beaches, and easy going lifestyle. Now Travelers can add one more accolade to that

list: a great airport. Beatrix International Airport recently scored well in a customer satisfaction survey conducted by the well known Aruba Airport Authority (AAA).

The December 2010 survey included three hundred passengers and was conducted during the busiest days and times. Passengers rated various airport qualities from excellent to poor. Six of the nine most important qualities were deemed excellent by the travelers, including feeling safe and secure.

This is great for Aruba, and even better for travelers. The survey is yet another piece of evidence that points to the conclusion that Aruba is a great travel destination. Queen Beatrix International Airport is truly state of the art and a great place to start any vacation.  The terminal features up-to-date security, a wide variety of shops and restaurants, and duty free products. On top of this, the Beatrix International Airport also offers travel information and transportation to help travelers get to one of the many sparkling resorts on the island.

Aruba is a premier travel destination for tourists looking to relax and enjoy the sun and beaches, and high airport satisfaction amongst travelers is only going to increase the island’s appeal. Coupled with a hospitality industry that works consistently to upgrade facilities and cater to vacationers, there is no better time to to travel to Aruba than now.
