They have a novelty carnival nuts stand but no restaurant to sit down in while you await the cascade of delay and then apology messages from your “legacy” carrier.

If you're flying United you should always look for connections in Denver, followed by Detroit. The only problem with Detroit is that if you're stuck overnight, the hotel shuttles take 90 minutes to get to the hotels. It's worse than the drive out to Heathrow

Why the fuck are you flying from NY to NJ in the first place, much less connecting in ORD in the process? Even if you are coming from Buffalo or something, by the time you connect in ORD, wouldn't driving (or even Amtrak) be faster?

The problem with Detroit is that it’s a delta hub so not a good place to connect on United 😂

maybe i don't fly enough or am not vain enough to care about lounges etc. but never have i felt compelled to call a major US airport either wonderful or horrendous except during major construction. they are all unremarkable and pretty poor by international standards but generally serviceable. i'm not expecting the plaza hotel.

Dublin is ghastly and in Europe. CDG also very prole, no separation between priority and regular security when I went so I just took the priority line up to the metal detectors then cut in line and pissed off a bunch of butch dykes who complained in broken English

ORD is fucking awful and looks exactly the same as it did in the early 90s when Home Alone 2 filmed there. The blue line is pretty great and easy to use to get into the city but that's the only nice thing the airport has going for it.

O'Hare has been a mess since the first time I used it in 1964. In 1967 I got stranded there for 3 days courtesy of the big Chicago blizzard. They ran out of booze and low on food. But I was young and it was all an exciting adventure.
