You won't have that problem at LGA). If by "facillities" (sic, again) you want a shopping mall and trains to the gates, you'll have to go to DEN or some similar atrocity for that.


You know it's ok if you don't like JFK: that's not ridiculous (although I do disagree). What is ridiculous are these so-called "reasons" and your utterly idiotic statement (please don't get confused: I'm calling your statement idiotic, not you) about demoting the person who approved the project to baggage handler. Why do I like the new terminal? It's new, it's bright, and most importantly it's connected to airplanes that take me where I want to go. BTW, if you understood the design of the new terminal, you would understand that, once completed, you will be able to get to half of the gates without having to go down the escalator and walking under the tarmac.
