For celeb-spotting and transit links: London City Airport. It’s nice being able to check your bags and fuck off into Stratford for a few hours. It’s super expensive though.
For a chill experience: London Southend Airport. Not in London, but loads of seating, decent views across the tarmac, and loooaaads of room.
For getting lost: Washington Dulles. Christ that place was designed by Stevie Wonder in a house fire. The sheer number of destinations is wonderous though fair play, a great place to feel like a tiny cog in a huge machine.
Back in 2012 my family and I flew home to the UK from Portugal and landed at London City.
We happened to be on the same flight as the UK Olympic athletics team. All super nice people. Better still, because of the athletes we got a priority passport control queue and the quickest baggage reclaim I’ve ever experienced - the bags were on the carousel before we even got there.
So, yeah, really enjoyed London City Airport but I definitely recommend flying with a team of Olympeans whenever possible.
Awesome. I am - at best, out of the loop in entertainment news: and at worst, culturally retarded - so I was sat at LCY with a colleague and he was pointing out famous chefs, golfers, public figures every five minutes.
I was still trying to figure out how anyone affords either to eat or drink at the airport without being on business expenses.
I hate Atlanta way more than Dulles. Dulles and Orlando I’ve been through enough to almost be able to navigate blindfolded, so maybe that’s why I rate both higher than they deserve, but Atlanta… Christ I hate that place. And the airport is shit, too.

I thought Dulles was basically just one long, straight line building
