TOP 10 2009 / 2010 (m = million passengers)

01. Atlanta Hartsfield (ATL) 88.03 m / Atlanta Hartsfield (ATL) 89.33 m
02. London Heathrow (LHR) 66.04 m / Beijing Capital (PEK) 73.95 m

09. Frankfurt Main (FRA) 50.93 m / Frankfurt Main (FRA) 53.01 m
10. Denver Int. (DEN) 50.17 m / Denver Int. (DEN) 52.21 m

note: the last paragraph shows the preliminary TOP 10 - we don't have the figures from HND and DFW yet, but we can be certain, the TOP 10 will look like this. there are no major changes to see between 2009 and 2010 - the 10 busiest airports in the world are still the same. there have been some rank changes though: PEK is now no. 2, ORD is no.3 again, LHR fell to rank 4, CDG fell to rank 7, while LAX climbed to rank 6. the TOP 10 for 2011 will definitely see some major changes.

I will make a TOP 20 later.

There is seriously more Indian and African airports that's got more than 1million pax. Where is Delhi, Nairobi, Addis Abeba, Port Elizabeth, Lagos, Mauritius etc.

[HD]

thanks hovrinskij and isaidso (toronto was already in the list, I added montreal though).

grjplanes: the freemasons are withholding this data due to the special importance of all these airports to the world economy and world peace ...

Nairobi 5 485 771 +8.0%

There's thousands of airports over 1 million. A more feasible cutoff would be 3.5m which limits it to around 300 airports.
