Atlanta was always my favorite, DFW and IAH were the worst.

DFW I was always running to catch flights and IAH you had to walk miles just to get to customs.

Erbody talks shite but Atlanta is fantastic. Atlanta is super easy to get in and out of. You can fly pretty much anywhere in the world non-stop. It is laid out in an orderly manner. Some (big) airports are like a maze

100% this

Good.way to put it.

Controversial take here but Miami in my experience has been the best overall. Easy for connections, customs moves efficiently, and even going through TSA moves pretty quickly when you arrive at the airport. However, it used to suck so they’ve made huge improvements.

My worst for a connection was Charlotte and worst for the TSA line was Denver.

The lower terminal at Miami is like the stairway to hell.

Charlotte sucks.

All airports suck really, unless it’s a charter.

I fly 5-6 times a year and I’ve honestly never gotten to an airport and said, “wow this sucks” or “woah this airport is awesome”

What are people looking for? It’s an airport lol

Best for connecting: DEN,

Just coming here to say this.

I've flown into Denver twice and it reminds me a lot of Atlanta in both efficiency and layout

rental car pickup lot is attached to the airport


Agreed. I travel a good bit for work and when I have to get on a fricking bus to get my rental car it goes to the bottom of my list

FCA is one of the best. The airport aint nothing special but you are 15 miles from Glacier Nat Park when you land there. Location, location location!


DFW has led to many delays in my life.

Some of my favorites are Phoenix Sky Harbor (PHX) and Sacramento International (SMF). My least favorite is Kansas City International (MCI) and the old MSY

My favorite is Vegas because you can gamble and it has bars inside smoking rooms with slot machines.

Only airport I enjoy having to wait hours in

If you’re trying to get through TSA without Clear, Pre-Check, or Sky Priority, ATL can sometimes suck.

But that’s own damn fault. Once you clear TSA, ATL is phenomenal… unless you’re flying out of old-arse Concourse T.

I can get my car ASAP at MCO.

That's worth a lot.

By far, my favorite.


Even though we lost a $65K ring there.

worst airport for me is ORD or Orlando, never a good experience at either. CLT isn't bad but it is home base for me so only O&D

DFW up there with the best, ATL is awesome for how many people it serves. Train works well and pretty easy to get in between gates.

When I lived in Atlanta I was just a few miles from MARTA (walked it several times), and I could be anywhere usually without a connection. Security blew but even before PreCheck, I could usually cheat it with alternate security area (can’t remember what it was called).

Now I always have a connection but GSP (Greenville) is an awesome airport. Usually connect in Denver, which I know very well after 25 years of regular flight in and out of there. It’s a pain to drive to and from but good for connections.

Last time I connected in DFW I wanted to shoot myself. Mostly due to American. But the airport itself is indeed retarded.
