Ask the Pilot A filthy lobby, sullen-faced employees, no place to sit, and a vague sense of danger all add up to the World's Worst Airport.
  • SJC, Mineta San Jose International Airport

    OK, to be fair, I am griping about SJC back in the dot com days. I spent way too much time there between 1999 and 2001. Now, imagine my disbelief, each time, at having to drag my carry-on and laptop bags up a set of those rolling stairways to board either Delta or United's 737s, and this is in high-tech Silicon Valley. Somehow, their renovations were all car related, including moving rental cars a bus ride away from the main terminal (Southwest and American got the newer terminal, so you always had to get on a bus to get a rental car). If my company's office was not a mile away from SJC, I would have booked all my flights out of SFO. At least they've got dim sum, Just Desserts, and the Body Shop in the United Domestic terminal.
