The world's busiest airport rankings are out and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport still leads the pack. The airport handled 106.3 million passengers in 2025, following more than 108 million travelers the year before.
Officials say the airport generates more than $66 billion in annual economic impact and supports over 63,000 on-site jobs, making it one of Georgia's largest employers.
Dubai International Airport held onto the No. 2 spot for the third year in a row, remaining the busiest in the world for international passengers. Haneda Airport in Japan, Dallas-Fort Worth, and Shanghai Pudong round out the top five.
Hartsfield-Jackson has held the title as 'World's Busiest Airport' for 27 of the last 28 years. The airport slipped out of the No. 1 spot only in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic.
