PilotMike 0 #26 July 22, 2003 QuoteMCI (Kansas City) has to be the most annoying. There is a security point at each gate, not each section of the airport, each gate. So if you go and check in and are sitting at the gate waiting and then you need to take a piss. You take your carry on with you, take a piss then get strip searched again. I lived in Kansas City for years and worked at DFW last year. Waiting in line at security with the people for 1/2 a terminal building is a lot more annoying to me. There's never long lines at MCI, when they've got security for every 1-3 gates... -------- Benefitting from the 'free capture of verticality.' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gawain 0 #27 July 22, 2003 DFW annoys me, Atlanta's Hartsfield International is no peach, and Newark used to top my list, but the monorail has greatly improved accessibility. Tampa is a big star that reminds me of what Newark used to be like. I'd have to say that Atlanta tops my list, with DFW a close second. LAX doesn't bother me too much.So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

nacmacfeegle 0 #28 July 22, 2003 Scatsta and Sumburgh in the Shetland Islands. Sumburgh is the only international airport I've been to that didn't have a bar, and its pretty tricky to land at. Its in the Airline pilots top ten worst approaches. Atyrau in Khazakstan is pretty poor. Lagos sucks, way too much bribery going on. Somebody said Amsterdam....have to disagree, Schiphol is one of my favourite airports. Finally, appealling to my sense of 'quaintness', there is Barra airport, the runway is the beach, 'Washed by the tide twice a day it is the only beach airport in the world to handle scheduled airline services'....-------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

slotperfect 7 #29 July 22, 2003 I vote for Atlanta. My connecting flight is NEVER in the same terminal, and I always seem to get put on hold going in (traffic) or delayed coming out (maintenance and traffic). Delta sux as an airline, IMHO.Arrive Safely John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJL 235 #30 July 22, 2003 My vote for worst goes to CHICAGO, MIDWAY. Nice cheap flights and you can get in and out quickly but honestly the worst employees. Don't even think about getting food there, the employees will scowl at you for making them work. Quote...but Washington/Dulles (IAD) is thoroughly stupid with those lift-busses to move people between the parts of the terminals. Or did they get rid of those finally? They're FINALLY going to get rid of those when the tunnel is complete.

freeflir29 0 #33 July 22, 2003 Newark kinda sucks but it's not so bad if you are only connecting. It's trying to leave that airport that sucks. I always like the ones that I can smoke in. Like ST Louis, Manchester, Atlanta, Tampa, Orlando. I hate the ones where you have to go outside. Buncha Nazis!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crapflinger2000 1 #37 July 22, 2003 DFW sucks ass when flying American (really it is American that sucks ass)... A couple times I have had to wait on the tarmac for a gate to open up, because of "unforseen departure delays"... What I suspect is going on is that they don't care if they screw up the gates by a plane or two and I bet this happens every friggin day... plus the connecting flight is a good 20 minute walk everytime __________________________________________________ What would Vic Mackey do?

freeflir29 0 #38 July 22, 2003 Quote Midway The new part isn't so bad....except that FUCKING RECORDING!!!!!! "Attention.....the moving walkway is now ending." Try listening to that for 3-4 hours out of your day!!! I say....if you are stupid enough to NOT notice you deserve to fall on your face!! The old F concourse will be closed down next month.

freakyrat 1 #39 July 22, 2003 I agree on that stupid recording at Midway but the new airport is really good and will be better when all the gates are finished. Tampa by far is the best airport in the US. DFW (the American terminals) is the worst with Atlanta a close second. Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jessd 0 #42 August 9, 2003 In my experience I would say that it's a toss-up between Newark and Logan. I always get man handled when I go to Logan and all of personal belongings wind up on some table for everyone to see.

bobsled92 0 #44 August 9, 2003 QuoteDakar, Senegal or Monrovia. If you leave the terminal they kill you. Frankfurt (Main) is cool cause Dr. Mueller's Sex Shoppe is right there as you get off the plane. Yep! WHAMMO!! it's right there and everybody from the U.S. goes 'Oh mY God" and hopes that the kids think it means something else in Deutch although Luftansa always landed as though they require their "tail hook to catch the cable on a Carrier". DFW sucks. O'Hare is way cool._______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
