Have not flown through JFK, but have flown through Newark, which I thought was a good airport. However this was approx five years ago when I travelled internally from EWR to MCO.

Again, MCO was also a good airport. Infact on arrival LGW North on the return, I really thought..... Great! Back in grubby Britain!

It really is about time that either BAA, or the government took stock of the poor state of our main Gateway. As a first impression though, I suppose it is in keeping with the rest of the UK.

Dubai International is very nice, but let's bear in mind that the terminal has only been in use for approx two years, so lets see what will be said of it in ten years or so when it has been well used. I'd put money on it that the airport authority will not allow it to lower its high standards, which is something that BAA seem unable to do.

Here hoping that BAA can do something to turn around the state of these airports.
