"The analysis examined 45 major international airports, taking into account Wi-Fi and mobile internet speeds, traveler ratings, dining density, and passenger volume, with each airport earning an overall score that determined its ranking position. According to Lior Neu-ner, founder of Remote Rocketship, "The study shows that smaller airports often provide better environments for remote work than more major airports," proving that bigger isn't always better."
"Topping the list is John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana, California, which earned the highest overall score thanks to its strong Google rating, fast mobile internet speeds of 451.72 Mbps, and a high concentration of dining options per square mile, 23.8. John Glenn Columbus International Airport follows in second place, standing out for its fixed broadband speeds of 173.52 Mbps and relatively low passenger traffic-an advantage for travelers seeking quieter workspaces."
"More than just places to grab food, shop, or charge devices between destinations, airports now serve as makeshift offices, letting hybrid and remote workers wrap up one last call before their final boarding call. But not all airports are created equally, at least in terms of remote work amenities like connectivity, comfort, and convenience. Whether you're traveling for business or pleasure, these U.S. airports optimized for remote work are worth keeping in mind."
Remote Rocketship analyzed recent data from Ookla, the Federal Aviation Administration, and airport websites to rank 45 major U.S. international airports for remote work. The analysis used Wi-Fi and mobile internet speeds, traveler ratings, dining density, and passenger volume to calculate overall scores. Smaller airports often provide quieter, better-equipped environments for remote work, with faster mobile speeds and higher dining concentration improving convenience. John Wayne (Santa Ana) ranked first for fast mobile speeds, high dining density, and strong traveler ratings. John Glenn Columbus and Sacramento followed, noted for strong broadband or mobile speeds and lighter crowds.
