Fair point.
I was in LaGuardia only once, years ago. The gate #s were written on yellow legal paper and duct taped to the walls. Then they'd move them around.
I used to love LaGuardia but that was only because I worked for a huge company that printed airline tickets in our office and had a Hertz counter as well. Flew the shuttles every week to Washington National and you could use the tickets on either airline so there was never a wait (every half hour). That was pre-911 though.
O’Hare is pretty bad. You’d think they’d have a much better food selection and it’s be nicer.
I think this is unfair..... unless you are flying in/out on a Saturday to/from the islands. Then it's a total #### show.
Hated it. Had 5 hours to kill there , piss poor food options etc. Not a fan of any airport but this was bottom barrel.
KC airport is a dump. The bbq place through security isn’t the worst, but that airport sucks.
Good posting.
Newark has an extra layer of ugly plus it is surrounded by probably the most dangeous junkyard ghetto in the world.
I'd rather fly out of Newark than any other NYC airport. It's definitely no frills but at least it's easy.
Obviuously you have never been stuck over night there or had it as your destination airport and had to drive in and out of there.
Slight hijack...flew out of Newark with strong crosswinds. Northwest asks for 17 volunteers to lighten load. After some coaxing with $400, they get the volunteers. A few minutes later, the volunteers get back on the plane. Northwest decided they didn't want to pay them. Capt announces we are going to the end of the runway to burn off fuel for 20 min. Pilot sitting next to me takes out pen and paper and does some calculations, turns to me and says “we should be ok”

Ha! I flew People from Dallas to the Portland Jetport in Maine through Newark when I was 12. I remember that very well. Also remember my buddy elbowing me to look at the woman across from us who was wearing short shorts and no undies. Huge 1985 black bush in full view. Had to buy your own Cokes on People.
