Luxury publisher Condé Nast Traveler recently released a list of the best airports in the U.S. according to its readers, and Savannah/Hilton Head International came out on top.

Though not a very busy airport, the town-square inspired layout makes it feel intimate and inviting, and travelers might feel as if they've been transported back in time to a historic Southern Street according to the publication.
