32. Mariscal Sucre International Airport – Ecuador
Year of construction: 2006
Risk factors: Weather, slippery slopes
Since its construction began, Quito’s main airport has received numerous awards for its good service. However, it has also been the site of several troubling incidents, which have earned Mariscal Sucre its spot on this list.
Among these incidents are airplanes sliding off the runways due to the humidity of the terrain and aircrafts colliding with neighboring buildings while trying to land. To top it off, the airport’s location also causes pilots to worry about wind and fog before and during landing.
