Seoul Highest Quality Airport

Interestingly, Europe's top airport ranked number eight on the overall list and was none other than Ben-Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv; giving credence to my suggestion in my Official Listing of Countries by Region that perhaps Israel should be considered a European country. Here's an article about the rankings.
