"Car-for-hire availability, paired with MIA's impressive infrastructure investment program, makes it a standout hub for business travelers seeking easy connections and state-of-the-art facilities," was the study's most notable finding.
Just two months have passed since J.D. Power declared MIA the most customer-satisfied mega airport in North America, according to Booking.com for Business.
“I am thrilled that MIA’s ongoing improvements are making a strong impression not only with our passengers, but also with industry experts like Booking.com,”
said Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava.
“In addition to having the busiest airport in Florida and the second busiest in the nation for international passengers, our community can also take pride in having one of the best airports in the country for business travelers.”
With 563 automobiles available for hire, MIA rated best among all U.S. airports in the study's six categories, offering "flexible options for reaching city center for meetings or onward destinations."
“Access to on-site car hire provides business travelers with more flexibility than taxis or transfers, especially when visiting multiple clients or offices during a single trip,”
Booking.com for Business said in the analysis.
“MIA also offers excellent ground transport links, being just 22 minutes from Brickell City Centre and Miami’s financial hub.”
The report also commended MIA for operating 196 nonstop routes, 38% of which are business-class routes, "offering business travel passengers more flexibility and options to rebook flights if they need to, due to any travel disruption or last-minute schedule changes."
“What’s more, a $9 billion modernization program titled ‘Future Ready’ is already improving terminal efficiency, TSA processing, and boarding times,”
Booking.com for Business said.
“With airport-wide upgrades like this underway, MIA is set to improve passenger experience across both leisure and business travel even further.”
