New Orleans before they're about to redo it all over in the next few years.

In agreement. Except for the Sam Adams restaurants where you can get just about any Sam Adams on tap. And the areas all around the airport are garbage. You fear for your safety while refueling a rental.

The airport in College Station/Bryan....only has 2 gates and once thru security a coke machine and bathroom, singular.

Other than that MSY sucks for a city that sized. ATL not as bad now that the D terminal has be renovated.

I've used the airport in Dothan, AL many times. There's only about 5 flights a day (all to Atlanta). Only one gate. A small pizza place in the terminal, nothing past security except for a bathroom.

On the plus side, when I fly into Dothan from Atlanta, I go back in time. (1 hour timezone difference for a 40-minute flight)

They have upgraded it since the last time I flew into there.

They downgraded in my opinion. Until a few years ago the pizza place was a Green Bay Packers-themed sports bar. I have no clue why there would be a Packers-themed sports bar in Lower Alabama, but there was.

I haven't used that airport in many years. My wife will fly into there when she and the kids go without me.

It's actually nice if you're from that tri-state area. Real quick flight to Atlanta (as opposed to driving 4+ hours). Then of course from Atlanta you can go anywhere. My wife and I used that airport on our honeymoon. Final destination: Barcelona

I grew up about 3 miles away from the airport. We drive when we go to Dothan now. Nashville is a pretty quick trip.

I just hope it was on the Houston County side. Dale County is a sad place.

The fact that this is even a measurable standard speaks for itself.
