It looks like Edmonton has beaten out Calgary.

Calgary International Airport is not as good as it once was, falling 0.3 percentage points behind the airport for Alberta’s capital in terms of efficiency.

Calgary finished sixth for airports with less than 15-million passengers, while Edmonton finished fifth.

The Air Transport Research Society rates 142 airports and 16 airport groups in North America, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region.

According to the Calgary Herald when it comes to airports that see more than 15-million passengers a year, Vancouver has once again finished in fifth.
