The Gdańsk Airport began 2018 by taking the fifth place in the ranking of the ten best small airports in the world (airports serving 2.5 to 5 million passengers per year).

In the OAG PunktualityLeague ranking produced by an analytical company with the largest air travel database in the world, one of the most important aspects of passenger service, i.e. punctuality, was taken into account. The punctuality rate showing the percentage of arrivals and departures on schedule calculated for the Gdańsk airport was 85%, which is only slightly worse than the most punctual small airports (Tenerife North 90.05%, Hannover 89.34%, Stavanger 86.67%).
