If you can find a website where people are talking about how much they love JFK, then you can find where other Airports have held concerts.

Lisa Campbell gave stunning free San Diego Airport concert - National Airlines/Airport | Examiner.com

Live concerts add local flavor to Nashville airport - USATODAY.com

Concerts Are Often Held At Austin-Bergstrom Airport

Tampa International has won many awards over the years. Haven't been there in a while but I like the layout. One of the worst airports I have been to was Detroit, but that was several years ago.

At last, it only took 50 posts to get there..

Tampa International has long been considered one of the best airports based on design and efficiency. Conde Naste Magazine named it the best airport in the US and one of the top 3 in the world.

You should see the new McNamara Terminal in Detroit. It feels like you have stepped into the future.
MetroAirport.com

The old terminal was one of the worst in the country, imo.

I hate traveling through LAX. You have to go outside security to get anywhere at that Airport.

I like Airports that are designed to allow you to travel to any terminal/gate after a single security screening or with no additional security screening if you are just connecting to a flight on a different airline.

What? No negative votes for Philly? This has got to be among the worst to fly thru , especially in winter. Lots of overlap of runways, and very tight areas for planes between the gates. Result: long delays.
Pittsburgh is very efficient, particularly now that it is no longer a hub. Simple layout, east in, easy out.
Detroit was a disaster a few years back- 'thought I heard they have improved it.

In all fairness to LAX, it's really a victim of the age it was developed.

I really can't imagine the hassle of connecting there to other airlines, but as a place to begin or end your trip it really isn't bad at all.

Looks like the people have spoken...

They clearly don't like your NY airports located in ghettoville

Just from my experiences:

Best Airport-Cincinnati or John Wayne in Orange Co., Cal.

Worst--Dulles in Wash. DC
