LAX is okay man, as long as you don't have to arrange transportation (on other words, some one will pick you up)

I been to OHare once, and I know the traffic there is hellish.

 
OHare has sucked almost every time I have flown through it (and that is about 8 times in 6 months). I just got back from a trip to NY, and I have to say that LGA is a dumpy looking airport with only minimal facilities.


btw, anyone notice that the fancy toilets seem to be broken at OHare all the time the past year?
 
I only fly to LAX from SFO or OAK, never had a problem. Must be the airline. I take SouthWest from OAK most the time.

yep i totally agree with that, if you dont have a ride getting to LAX sucks, but thats true of getting anywhere in LA without a ride 🙂

the first bad experience with LAX i had was just this last weekend, and it happened to my g/f not me, so i dont count it and i blame American Airlines more then i do LAX
 
San Diego airport is pretty trashy.
Budapest airport was junk (I thought for a sec, I'm back in St. Petersburg, Russia - looked exactly the same).

US aiports in big cities are nice in general.

Newark is the pits, but really both LaGuardia and JFK are sucky too. If you're flying into or out of New York you're screwed no matter what. Logan in Boston is almost as bad. Awful facilities and there's no way to get in and out of the airport without pulling your hair out. LAX is pretty bad and I have a special hatred for Atlanta. The airport itself isn't so awful, but whenever you're leaving you're 92nd in line behind 91 other Delta flights.

I'll second Newark. They have the laziest and rudest people working there. Every employee has an attitude problem. Maybe because they live in Jersey.
 
DFW....they switched terminals on me about 15 mins before boarding one time...from A wing to B wing....yeah...thats like a 2 mile run....with a 15pd laptop bag and carryon...not fun 😛
 
Muscat is UEA, had to spend 19hrs once when our flight got stranged, cabin crew walked off, airport was deserted, no food or drink for 19hrs until finally they sent a new crew. Man that sucked!
 
i've never thought LAX was that bad. i've only flown out of southwest and the united terminal, and it was pretty pleasant each time. everything is pretty wide, and the problems are usually due to the airline. i don't like how even if i'm parked for 10 freaking minutes in the structure, i still have to pay 3 bucks. i want those meters back too.

SFO international isn't bad at all. i always fly out of SJC and it is pleasant and with the renovations it should hopefully be better. i don't like how if you're circling, you have to go through BOTH terminals (before you used to be able to circle just terminal A or terminal C, and now it's both.)

i don't like how SJC's terminal C you have to walk out of the plane down a flight of stairs, and the same crap for burbank. i might as well check all my luggage just so i don't have to haul it up and down stairs, especially in rainy or windy conditions.

Anyone saying LAX never flies. LAX is NOT that bad.

Every time I have had a connection there we have ended up sitting on the florr because there aren't enough seats for all the flights in that particular section.
