Re: The most Annoying Airports
Getting bothered with security checks is not a good use of time. Its for our security, afterall.
Annoying airports ... well, thats a whole different topic. Heathrow always seem to be under construction, which is totally annoying. Plus, the airport has a weird design (Term 3) which requires all passengers of all flights to be seated in one central place. This is counter-intuitive, because you would want passengers to be spread out to their gates to avoid congestion.
Dubai has a very nice airport, but man, it is built in one long line. I came in via Airbus 380 (new terminal) on gate 240 something. My hotel was near gate 101 or something, and it was a long straight walk. Who the hell designed that airport where there are no people movers, no shuttles and just keep walking. Dubai airport has lots of eating options, but surprisingly I don't think they have a single restaurant where you can sit down and order. All our take-away and find a place to sit. This can be very annoying, especially when the airport is crowded.
