Title: Houston, your airport sucked.
Post by: The Fake Shemp on July 30, 2009, 09:44:57 PM
I've been to a lot of airports (and I mean a LOT) and Houston was by far the shittiest I've ever been to.

Which one? Bush? Hobby?

Either way, you're right. They both suck.

I hear the exit ramp into the airport runs for five miles; that's just insane!

I was at Bush.

It was the worst airport experience of my life.  And, again, I've pretty much been to every major airport in the country and a ton of smaller ones too.

Bush really sucks. How much did you have to travel from one flight to the next? The airport is unorganized, the wifi isn't free, and you have to walk EVERYWHERE. They've tried remodeling it to make it better but it has seemingly made it WORSE.

I don't care about walking distance, but that airport is a clusterfuck.  There are two different ways to get to your destination but none of them make any sense?

Not only that, it's the only airport where employees driving carts isn't the except, but the rule.  They own the fucking walkway and are incredibly rude.  At most airports, you expect to see a cart every now and then.  Not all the fucking time.  How lazy is everyone?

It was also - easily - home to the worst airport food I've ever had in my entire life.  No lie.

The bathrooms didn't work and some janitor just left his cart there in the middle of it.  Like he went to lunch.  The urinals weren't working properly, the sinks were so gross that they looked like you could get cholera from them and there was no fucking paper towels?

I went to another bathroom and the same thing.

Houston is the asshole of America.  It could be no other way.

Oh I know.

I'll ask for help and they ignore me.

And I have to SCREAM for the cart people to fucking stop so I can get on.

The airport food variety is terrible. If I'm hungry I just go to Wendy's.

Have you been to Orlando's airport. I love that airport. You take a TRAIN to the airport. THAT IS SO AWESOME.

Why would you get on a cart? :lol

Like, I'll be carrying two heavy bags and a backpack sometimes, and they somehow ALWAYS put my flight at the very end of the airport.

I'm talking about the carts that carry passengers to various parts of the airport.

I misunderstood you too, I was thinking the luggage carts. Not ECVs (electronic convenience vehicles) as we call them in the biz. :smug
