I would put VFA near the top of that list. No a/c, certainly no lounge, limited hard seating, and only 1 giftshop/newstand (to burn through the last of your remaining worthless ZIM dollars.) There are no jetways (boarding is by exterior stairs) no taxiway (the planes taxis back down the sole runway to reach the terminal), and baggage claim is merely a concrete ledge where the bags are piled for retrieval. I like to wander around airports and explore. At VFA, that took all of 90 seconds.
