Provided is a passenger boarding bridge that makes it possible to prevent interference between a door of a large aircraft and a cab from occurring before the door is fully opened. One example of the passenger boarding bridge of the present invention includes: a rotunda (4); a tunnel unit (5); a cab (6) rotatably provided at a distal end of the tunnel unit (5); a mover that moves the cab (6) to dock the cab (6) with an entrance (3A) of an aircraft; a door position detector that is provided inside the cab (6) and that detects, after the cab (6) is docked with the entrance (3A), a position of an edge portion of a door (3a) of the entrance in a width direction of the door (3a) with respect to the cab (6) in a case where a width of the door (3a) is greater than or equal to a predetermined width; a door opening determiner that determines whether or not the door (3a) of the entrance can be opened smoothly based on whether or not the position of the edge portion of the door (3a) in the width direction of the door (3a), the position being detected by the door position detector, is present within a predetermined allowable region; and a notifier that notifies that there is an abnormality in a case where the door opening determiner has determined that the door (3a) of the entrance cannot be opened smoothly.
