...is the domain of satan. That place should have it's own time zone because it everything there is an hour late i had to wait there for an hour, which isnt so bad compared to some airport waits but satan decides to make things more horrible for me by killing my iPod battery, while my flight got steadily pushed farther and farther back

Yeah, i've been through there many times. It always happens that either your flight is delayed by hours, or the hour layover you do have is barely enough time to sprint to your connecting flight. I hate flying through Atlanta.

Yeah, you're right man.

My last flight to Bulgaria was an hour and a half late, totally fucked me. Because of that delay I missed my flight in Amsterdam. I had some crazy Dutch lady driving me through the airport on one of those little carts at 50 mph. We nearly killed thousands, it was crazy.

But alas I still missed my flight.

Then my bags got lost...boy let me tell how fun it was trying to tell the old man they have at the airport in Sofia handling baggage problems that my bags were gone when he didn't speak English (barely).

Argh. Flight delays suck the fat one.

out of the 50+times i've gone through atlanta, i've never had a problem. My only problem with it is that concourse D doens't have enough restaurants and that the entire airport is ugly as hell with it's sheet metal/cheap look.

But I've also talked with pilots who say they avoid ATL like the plague cause the airport is so bad.

At least Atlanta is laid out nicely so that they can turnover planes quickly and shit. That terminal deal with the parallel buildings and underground walkways is money compared to Logan in Boston. Its crammed in next to the ocean, so they can't really expand, and the terminals are a mess. Whenever they decide to build something new, they just slap it on wherever. It is a mess to navigate and shit.

logan in boston isn't that hard to get through. pretty simple actually. Now, driving through there is another story. I think some designer just said "y'know, fuck it, lets just build the highways in no order, and throw in a garage for shits"

Once I had to spend the night sleeping next to my baggage.

Oklahoma City has the nicest airport.
