Funny thing... I had heard, (can't remember where or how), that the new airport in Denver was GLORIOUS. Ehhh.
To my surprise San Francisco, today, and IMHO... is excellent, other than the prices of course, which is true in all airports.
My least favorite airport is LAX... which IMHO should be burned to the ground, then fumigated, then rebuilt... but only after the EPA makes sure the toxic waste of the old airport has been eradicated.
OK, so I exaggerated a little, I still don't like it.
A long, long, LONG time ago I was flying a cross country 3 leg flight plan to get my private pilots license. I chose as one of my legs, the first one, a flight from Fresno to near Vacaville... I think the current Nut Tree Airport, (could be wrong about this). They had a restaurant there that was done in "Airline Motiff"... the waitresses wore those old Pan Am Stewardess outfits. The seats were like old plane seats. And to top it off... just GREAT food. So if I'm right that it was the current "Nut Tree".. that's my favorite airport. - JamesJM
