This is my 3rd flight at D21+ and damn...
Bus gates not going to go away because they're trying to squeeze a fairly large airport in terms of traffic into a fairly small area. They can maybe extend a bit on the north side of the airport for another satellite terminal, but that's about it. That's why they're mooting another airport (though I still think it should be a combination of PAE and BFI as regional relievers).

So have I, I've gotten them a couple of times. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
