Great replies. Interesting reading. Used Google Earth to look at all airports mentioned. OK OK who said "sad"

The worst airport I've used is probably Malpensa. LHR and Gatwick are a national disgrace. Was once wonderfully treated by everyone at Washington after a flight LHR to Las Vegas went badly wrong. Carrying our bags to the hold door at Ercan was novel and could be the answer BA is looking for at LHR


Having an AK47 pointed at me with menace as I ran like a banshee to a lavatory at Ataturk was a good laff.

I found it fun once waiting over an hour for our bags at Stansted.

I thought I had walked myself to death once at Amsterdam.

San Francisco is the most unfriendly unhelpful place I've used. Love Las Vegas--just makes you smile it is so vulgar.Works well though.

Have fond memories though hazy of the bar in Memphis.

Luton is a shambles IMO Manchester a rip off for everything.

Prefer Southampton and Bournemouth to and fro Spain uk.

Please don't take any of this ramble to heart. Just my disorganized opinions.
Have decided that if I can incorporate the airports mentioned by you in our travels as we spend the kids inheritance I will.
I have a strange urge to visit Bishkek.

Regards to you all.
