Yes I've seen this discussed before. But then again you love the Atlanta airport so I don't hold much stock in your opinion on airports.

I will be at Detroit's airport on Saturday, my favorite part about it is the disco tunnel
Anchorage's airport has a nice observation deck which is good if the conditions are clear
Minneapolis's Delta terminal has iPads everywhere to help kill time when waiting for your plane or connection

I went through Portland (PDX) yesterday. Not huge, but nice airport with a lot of food choices.

Either Hong Kong or Seoul (Incheon)

Easy to navigate, ample food/drink options, and access to almost every city in the U.S. with commercial air service.

I was there back in November and my flight to Salt Lake City was delayed and I swear the people waiting for the SLC flight were the only ones left in the entire damn airport as it was late, probably around midnight or so. Denver has a really long and narrow corridor and I was just sitting there by myself on my phone in an quiet giant empty airport corridor so all the custodial workers actions were echoed a million times, definately creepy

Ataturk in Istanbul-smells like dog shite but smooth sailing at passport check, customs agents don't ask any questions.
My favorite has to be the one the one in Prague. This place was just so clean and beer was only $1.25 USD in the terminal.

I'm flying into Denver in 2 weeks. Does this place have a Shinning theme or something.

Schiphol. That airport runs like clockwork.
And it's the most comfortable airport for a long layover.

Best has many definitions.
Detroit (McNamara ONLY) is excellent, new clean, lots of concessions and wayfinding couldn't be easier. For international travel Brisbane was fantastic to navigate, transfer security was efficient and the call to gate system works well.
As much as I used to fly through Atlanta, as a passenger I don't love it... merely tolerate it. Gate houses are tiny (especially in D where it was built for 50-seaters, not 717s), constantly slammed and concessions are largely concentrated in the center of the piers without much seating.
The remodeled DFW will be a very nice operation as well.
From an airline business perspective... ATL is the best hub in the world, hands down.

I never get stuck there. ATL is fantastic

PDX and SeaTac are both great. I also like Minneapolis. Zurich is awesome and Incheon is very nice.
Riyadh King Khalid looks like something straight outta the 1970's. Hated flying out of that airport.

I don't recall it smelling like dog shite. Schipol is an obvious one. Frankfurt was OK, Delhi is new but looks like 1975 design in places plus landing at 3AM there is a brunt entry to the country, Barcelona is clean and new but you got to get crafty to find power outlets (Under the TVs). Athens airport is probably the nicest thing about the city.
Going through ICN, BKK and PVG in December. I'm sure ICN will win that one.

It just consists of long straight corridors for it's terminals
The opposite of DFW's half circles
