My favourite way to book a holiday is by opening up Skyscanner, typing in my nearest airport, popping in some dates, and hitting the “everywhere” search.

The tool has taken me everywhere from Skopje in North Macedonia to the Maldives, but not everyone is lucky enough to have a megahub like London Heathrow or Doha's Hamad International as their home base.

Live in Europe and wondering just how connected your nearest airport is? Wonder no more, because we’ve rounded up the top 25 most connected airports on the continent.

Global travel data company OAG has shared with Euronews Travel the number of destinations that each of the top airports in Europe serve, and there’s a clear winner.

Serving 294 destinations, Istanbul Airport is the most connected airport in Europe. That’s hardly surprising, given Turkish Airlines – which uses the airport as its home base – holds the Guinness World Record for the most countries flown to by an airline.
