15 Most Dangerous Airports in the World

If you have a fear of flying, the following statistic might put your mind at ease. The actual odds of dying on a commercial flight (for flight-related reasons, like accidents or crashes) is only about one in 29.4 million. However, not all airports are created equal. Treacherous approaches. Narrow and short landing strips. Inclement and unpredictable weather. Some airports are notoriously more dangerous than others. So if you have a fear of flying, or if you value your life, you might want to avoid the airports on this list. Buckle up passengers, and prepare for take-off, as we count down the 15 Most Dangerous Airports in the World.

Like the bit when the narrator says the Gibraltar is the most dangerous airport in Europe. And the follows with showing Norway and Portugal which are even worse both in Europe.

#2. I flew in Honduras as a passenger in 92. Man it was one hell of a landing. Before we could take off they left all luggage behind so the jet could take off. We had to wait over a week for our luggage to be delivered. So we could get to work on rebuilding the only Container Crane. That a Ship ran into Bow first. Great Experience.

Lived next to the runway that was literately in the sea in HK in the 90s nothing else compares!

You could re-do this video and include decommissioned airports... or even better 15 most dangerous or complicated instrument approaches for example the MLS into the nasa shuttle landing facility or the visual into the old Hong Kong Kai Tek visual with the checkerboard turn! The Buthan approach is difficult for sure. The tenzing Hillary approach at #1 belongs there. Absolutely!

If You want to reach to the top of the world, you have to have near death experience

I was surprised to see that the airport at Tenerife was not included. It had the greatest number of deaths in one crash in the history of aviation !

Thanks for letting me know where NOT to go to vacations, it's stressful enough for me to take a flight to learn about the destination's airport reputation, anyways nice video, kind of reminds me Be Amazed.

Don't just assume that the audience of this video only consists of US viewers, what made you think that? So don't use feet but meter instead.

[anaibarangan]

Good thing, if ever went to any of these places mentioned, it wouldn't be by plane.

[Artess-odwb]

Haha, I know that reading Wikipedia out loud is hard, but the requirement for the pilots flying into the last one on the list is TEN flights into Lukla, not TEN THOUSAND. 10k flights is an insane number. Even if the pilot did let's say two flights every single day without weekends or vacations, it would take almost 14 years to achieve ten thousand flights.

That french airport at alps was used for tomorrow never die opening

[donaldholderdoc]

These are scary but try being on a C-130A making a landing under warzoze condutions at full speed at night with a full payload. I've logged over 100 flights and nothing is more intimidating. My respects for these Air Force and Navy pilots is incalculable. 🕊️

[davidmaher]

They need to upgrade these airports. No and, if’s or but’s.

[DCJNewsMedia]

This video should be called
Death Trap Airports...4 real

[skylineXpert]

To most its a dangerous place.
But in my case I am "plane crazy" & having crossed of the 3 low landings i wanted to go to hehe.

Even did jetblast surfing at JSI & SXM.

Well, me and my family go to Roatan from Dallas which is the very risky airport because the runway is short and a lot of rough landings then la ceiba which is surrounded by trees and have a shorter runway Then Roatan And unlike Roatan the airport to operate airplanes and a big as the Boeing 737 an airbus A319 and airbus A320 both of the places have almost the same population and the only airport in their area because Roatan is a island and la ceiba is the only international airport there and both of these places are in Honduras so that’s why I’m explaining it because I’m from Honduras my family lives in la ceiba and it’s a great place to travel other so many activities except for swimming because they don’t let you swim in the ocean, but overall the roof so much things to do very dangerous risk your life. I don’t know if there was any crashes but I know it’s pretty dangerous both of these airports specially la ceiba and Roatan
