Biden- laguardia like third world country

LGA felt like a third world country when I was based there twelve years ago. I can't imagine it's improved with age.
 
LGA sucks, but as a guy who frequents third world countries, Biden's comparison is decidedly off the mark. :)

There are some big international airports that do it better than us... ICN, for example. FRA, maybe. Can't think of much else, though. LHR is a disaster, for instance.
 
The Tower always allows me to circle Central Park. LaGuardia rocks! Never been to the terminal though...
 
Meh, LGA is not the nicest place, but they DO handle a ton of traffic on a daily basis. The Delta terminals aren't that bad. The only real complaint I have is they REALLY need a metering frequency. I feel like that would make my life easier there. Taxi in, taxi out, pushbacks, clearances (sometimes) are all handled on one frequency...makes for a cluster.
 
Delta has done a decent job of putting lipstick on that hog. But... I spent 12 hours there in one day sitting through cancelled flights. There is literally no seating for the amount of traffic that place handles. It is simply too small to continue to add flight after flight.

Very true. The plus side is there is a restaurant over in D that has a pretty hot hostess that wears some pretty sheer and tight dresses.
 
"If I took them blindfolded and took them to LaGuardia airport in New York, he would like 'I must be in some third world country.' I'm not joking."

Both.

Detroit has been spiraling around the toilet for quite a while. I bought my Beretta in 1998 when Reagan was President and I swore I'd never buy another GM product because it sucked so bad.

Chicked dug it back then, but, well, ya know.

The Derg in a Beretta!!?????? LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL :bounce::)
 
ALL you guys ragging on LGA and NY can go back to your fancy clean airports and cities!!

Dirty rat infested jet bridge? .....Check
Rountine flooding of crew rooms and from the celings with sewage water? .....Check
Feces in the middle of the terminal?....Check (true story)
Probably going to die of asbestos posioning?....Check

Who doesn't like cramped and nasty? It's pretty much NYs motto.
My personal motto as well.

This is like a teenager, in 2014, laughing about disco. That was the shizzle back then.

Your kids will tease you about Beiber and Katy Perry. Just you wait.

ATL is, IMHO, pretty much the gold standard in terms of making what ought to be a huge constant rotating disaster work surprisingly well. There are nicer airports, but none that have anything like the amount of traffic. At least not in the US.
