Satellite terminal kills SEA for me.

And the disjointed tram system.

I like the PC at FLL and short walk to teh plane when flying CO. Not so much when flying UA or US from there.

^ and easy access to the rental car terminal, and elite line is always fast, I never wait there :D

I've been there. I mainly killed time in the KE Lounge, which was underwhelming.

The KE first class lounge? IMO that is probably one of the half-dozen best in the world.

Surprised you put FLL on the list; not one of my favorites.

I like being able to walk to the car rental place from the CO terminal. :-:

Naturally for my next trip I'll be on B6 and lose that. :rolleyes:

Some are domestic config and some are international config. Best to check the seat map.

Nice views, but I agree, far from impressive.

Speaking of airports, I thought the newer PRG terminal was quite nice.

I agree that MIA and LAX are generally holes, though the international terminal at LAX isn't so bad. EWR is delayed, everyone knows this. But bag delays are not something that is commonly associated with IAH, and the walk from customs down to get your bag is shorter than the hop from C to E. :rolleyes:

You think TBIT isn't so bad? Granted I haven't used it since last August, but I found it to be one of the worst dedicated international terminals I have experienced worldwide. Massive renovations ongoing, disrupting facilities; extremely long security lines at night; unbelievably long immigration and customs lines in the afternoon; lounges partially under reconstruction; narrow, crowded hallways; etc. Perhaps it's gotten better over the last seven months, but I haven't been there since then.

My all time favorite airport is SWF. Unfortunately, most of the major carriers with bigger planes aren't going their at the moment. Parking is cheap, it's easy to get too and there is total peace and quiet inside!
