较难的单词(B2+)
Newark Airport sucks. That's not just an opinion, that's an objective characterization backed by data. Each year, the FAA publishes an on-time ranking of 30 major American airports, and each year Newark Airport sits near the very bottom. In 2015, it was third to last. In 2016, last. 2017, last again, then second to last, second
last again, then back to dead last once again in 2020. Since then, Newark's ranking has risen, reaching a high of 17th out of 30 in 2024, but this was done largely not through Newark improving, but rather other airports getting worse. Various publications have attempted to evaluate airport quality in more nuanced ways, looking beyond simple on time ratings and incorporating a wider spectrum
of qualitative and quantitative metrics to create an index score ranking major airports. According to these, when you look at an airport as more than just a machine that's on time or not, Newark still sucks. According to The Wall Street Journal's 2023 large airport rankings, Newark is worst. According to AirHelp's 2025 index score of airports, Newark is worst, at least in America.
