It's staggering to spend time in some of the US's biggest transit hubs - LAX, Penn, the NYC airports, and then go and spend time in some around the world.
The US has a lot of catching up to do on it's basic infrastructure.
- lazerpants 9y agoThe NYC airports are strange because certain terminals are fantastic at all three airports, and other are glorified Greyhound stations.
- arnon 9y agoIn general, most US airports are pretty bad, but I'll avoid Terminal 1 at JFK at whatever cost. It's by far the worst airport terminal I've been to in my life. I read this week that each of JFK's terminals is run as it's own separate entity. If your flight goes to Terminal 4, and Terminal 4 has some issue or is overloaded, you can't go to any other terminal because they don't talk to each-other.

- ravitation 9y agoThose leaking ceilings are almost to the point where they could be classified as NYC landmarks...
- thedarkginger 9y agoReminds me of the Joe Biden speech a couple years back: > If I took you and blindfolded you and took you to LaGuardia Airport in New York, you'd think, ‘I must be in some third-world country.’
