- Elliott, Miami, FL

PS They don't call it MIA for nothin.

How in the hell did Logan in Boston not make this list. I don't think I've ever had a single flight in or out of there go smoothly.

I've always thought Midway in Chicago was great. Maybe I was just delusional because O'Hare sucks so badly.

While personal experience is, of course, only personal and anecdotal, I've always found JFK to be much better than LGA. Maybe it is because if I leave JFK I am usually on Cathay Pacific or Jet Blue, and from LGA I'm likely on Delta or Scare Canada, but my LGA experiences are usually much worse. In the summer, they seem to basically shut down LGA for thunderstorms.

Newark is generally a mess, but the terminal is at least less crowded than the other two.

so if you're flying from NJ, you're pretty much screwed.

And I agree with PeteyNice: EWR is the worst.

(oh, I live in NJ)

I get to go through 3 of them this weekend. Huzzah!

I hope the computer rankings are better than this poll so Newark and JFK can meet in the Airport BCS title game.

BOTH OUR AIRPORTS (Midway & Ohare) LOL.

Give or take for bad weather, but that's no issue to take up with the airport.

Maybe I'm jaded being a hometown boy, but I travel all the time and have never had more than a 10-15 minute delay out of O'Hare. Or maybe I'm just lucky, who knows. My worst delays by far have been out of LaGuardia and JFK. At least in the U.S.

If you are looking to LEAVE New York, there are some up north (compared to NYC anyways) that offer better prices, shorter lines, and fewer delays.

Is it me, or does this list get posted around twice a month?

Surprisingly, LGA isn't that bad for Departures really. In all my time flying out of there, I've only really been delayed once or twice. Of course....that could've been USeless Airways fault more than LGA's though.

DFW = Hell
Half of their terminals are underground so you can't even see if the plane is being serviced or whatever bs reason they're giving you.

"I Seek alternate airports when possible, or factor the likelihood of a delay into your plans."

Eh...Midway is the alternate airport in Chicago...I know some no go to Milwaukee, but damb, is it really worth it? In my experience, MDW is not that bad though.

Interesting.

I've flown from the Dallas, Chicago, Atlanta and Charlotte airports before, but the only real delays were maybe 20 minutes waiting to get off of the plane in Chicago. (every time, it seemed.)

The worst wait I ever had was at LGA... three hour delay.

We're number 1! We're number 1! And 10. Yay!!!!! Hey if you can't be a good example, be a horrible warning.
