Relegated Cardiff City were top of the Premier League when it came to entertaining away fans last season.
A survey conducted by the Football Supporters' Federation rated the Bluebirds ahead of Swansea City, Hull City, Southampton and Arsenal.
Just over 5,300 fans took part in the survey, which covered all four professional leagues in England.
Fans were asked to rate clubs on such factors as food and drink, safety, transport and view of the pitch.
From feedback, distance of travel (44%), time and day of kick-off (42.6%) and ticket prices (40.4%) were the main factors for determining whether or not fans attended an away game.
The likelihood of watching their team win was the least quoted reason supporters gave for attending an away game.
Only 3.9% of respondents said this was a reason they would travel to an away fixture.
Crystal Palace finished bottom of the Premier League, below Merseyside neighbours Everton and Liverpool.
