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.

    Buffalo (BUF)

    Buffalo’s airport is surprisingly nice in a functional way: cheap parking with prompt (and free) shuttle to the terminal; short lines at the counter and security; compact terminal so you don’t have to walk two miles to get to your gate; plentiful seating; relatively quiet. Sometimes the pilots will even circle Niagara Falls a couple of times after takeoff, to the annoyance of most of the business passengers but to the delight of anyone willing to open their eyes. Patrick would hate it because it has no history and limited livery, but its pleasant for real passengers.
