Glacier Park International Airport

The rental car guy met me at the gate as I was getting off the plane to give me the keys to our car.

Lafayette is nice and compact. Alexandria is a good one too.

Both really nice! I actually prefer flying out of Shreveport now with all of the decent improvements, plus short term parking is about a minutes walk from terminal.

Guangzhou (CAN) was brand new and sparkling clean but there was literally nothing inside besides chairs, bathrooms, and tvs. It was like spending six hours in some purgatory


Chinese airports are lacking in general unless you have lounge access.

I hate Miami. I avoid ATL. I enjoy Charlotte, Dallas, and Newark.

I have never had an issue going into or coming out of CDG...but I've never had to do a terminal change or had a layover there, only entry/exit and no issues and pretty quick. I do hate the ride in to Paris from there though.

On the negative side, I would put Milan Malpensa (MXP) as terrible for exit back to the US...entering, not a problem, but damn you better get there early to leave.

I also may be in the minority for being ok with LHR, at least in the terminals I've connected through. Interesting shops to keep me occupied, clean, not uncomfortable.

As far as domestic, I by far transit DFW more than any other, and have no problem with it and find it easy to navigate and if I choose to eat, offerings are about as satisfactory as an airport is gonna be.

Charlotte has bars right next to the boarding gates so I’m a big fan. For a home airport MSY is great no complaints

Yeah as long as you can avoid the mid air collisions on the way in

Been through quite a few airports and most are just a blur, but Istanbul and Singapore are noticeably nice.

MSY is a very nice airport with great amenities. If you have to rent a car it’s a pain in the arse, but once you’re in I actually really like it.

Charleston airport is also very nice.


My least favorite airport is BWI. DFW is up there as well.

The new renovations at Portlands airport are awesome - best looking interior of any US airport I’ve ever been in

Greenville Spartanburg is lovely and the only airport I can recall where you can sit outside and enjoy the view. Vancouver, Canada is nice because there's a Fairmont hotel right in the middle and they give you a menu of plains to spot. Palm Springs is very unique.
