Only thing I liked about it was the toilet seat covers in the bathrooms. Other than that, it has to be the poorest laid out building I’ve ever seen.

You’d think check-in would be on the first floor. Nope. Third. Restaurants and shops are on the first.

Next, you’d think TSA is on the same floor as check-in. Nope, go back to the 2nd floor.

Rental car area somewhere in the airport? Nope, it’s a 20 minute shuttle ride to the back of the airport?

Who designed this place? UCF engineers?

Did it fall over and crush anyone?


No?

Then shut up, nerd.

No, it didn’t. But the shops and restaurants being the first thing you see when when you walk in tells me a bunch of women designed this place.

I haven’t been yet. I’d like to plan on never going, too. Had no idea it was set up all retarded like that.

It’s a beautiful place but I’ve seen 2 issues. Lack of urinals in the men’s room and the poor layout of the Uber process. Men have to queue up to get to an open urinal. Women were lined out their door Sunday also. The Vegas airport has a well designed men’s room with plenty of urinals.

The Uber process is fubarred. Single file to arrive and not covered from the weather.

Yeah, every airport I’ve been to, the first thing you see walking in is your airlines check in station. Walk around the corner and there’s TSA. Then go up/down a flight of stairs to your gate. What’s so hard about that?

There are much worse airports, SD and Cincinnati come to mind

As far as car rental, have you been to Houston Hobby?

I am a big fan of HOUSTON Hobby

Baggage claim on lower level, pickup right outside and big covered area connected to the main garages

Check in on second floor, TSA right down the hall. Three terminal wings, very easy to navigate

Old but well laid out and efficient

IT's not. Biggest problem is catching a cab/Uber once you land.
