It's always fun to see these kinds of threads.

First, I don't judge airports nearly as much on traffic or distance from city center etc. as I do on the interior of the airport itself. As in "which airport would you rather have a 4 hour layover in".

OK, that said, Some of my favorites in no particular order.
Domestic:
ATL
DEN
LAX
MIA
EWR
SAN

International:
AMS
ICN
NRT
SIN
GRU
Most all airports in Brazil except GIG

Most disliked Airports.
Domestic:
ORD
JFK
DFW
DTW
MDT

International:
MNL
MUC
GIG
And probably a lot more that I haven't seen yet

DTW???? The old part is nasty, but the new WorldGateway is quite nice. What other terminals have a new Westin that you can duck into, literally right IN the main concourse? F&B is mediocre, agreed, but one doesn't go there to dine.

DTW is easy to maneuver through, nice on the eyes and other senses, etc. Certainly has it's negatives, but to put in on a "worst" list isn't appropriate. (It's former self, as well as the old parts, DO qualify).

"TULSA" gets added to my personal "bad" list.
