Airports are the only places where people from different countries and regions come together for a moment and then set out for their individual destinations. Some take domestic flights while others are ready to cross seven seas over. In either case, most often than not, these travellers seem to be in a lot of rush to get to one point from another. Always in a hurtle and running towards the designated terminal to catch their flights at the last second. At times it could get very busy and seem like chaos. This chaos seemed to have died down when the pandemic struck the world. But now by seeing the return of the old hustle and bustle at airports, it has become very obvious that the world is getting back to normal. So, here we will take a look at some of the busiest airports in the world that are popular for being packed with travellers all year round.
