A Spanish travel website’s customers have recognized McCarran International Airport for having the best shopping.
In reviews by thousands of customers of eDreams.com, the Las Vegas airport ranked No. 7 in 2012 among the world’s airports for shopping. McCarran did not make the list in 2010 or 2011.

McCarran trailed airports in No. 1 Copenhagen, Denmark; Cologne, Germany; Ponta Delgada, Azores; Munich, Germany; Beirut, Lebanon; and Larnaca, Cyprus, in the shopping category.
It placed ahead of internationally acclaimed Shiphol International in Amsterdam, Narita International in Tokyo and Zurich International in Switzerland.
