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.

    LIT Little Rock National

    I have to give a salute to my own airport, Little Rock National. It's small, clean, friendly, and easy to get to. The parking is inexpensive, and the new car rental area is fantastic. Even better, the airport is very close to the city itself, and easy to get into and out of. I have heard that there are plans to replace the terminal- they're going to build an entirely new one. That's too bad- the current one was just updated, but I guess that there's some unwritten law about airports constantly being under construction in some manner.

    I try to avoid Atlanta Hartfield if at all possible. I'll even risk the boondock terminals of Dallas if it means avoiding ATL.

    I do most of my traveling in-country, so I have memories of neat (and not so neat) little regional airports. Bakersfield CA's airport was one of the tiniest I've been to- tinier than pre-Katrina Gulfport MS.
