whome? Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 (edited) The Beijing airport was voted best in the world in 2009 survey published by "World-renowned British American travel magazine Conde Nast Traveller" Well the People's Daily cannot be expected to get things like this right .... figured at least one UK fellow would get a kick out of this .. Notice there is not one USA airport on the list ... from my cordial experiences with TSA I cannot imagine why. http://english.people.com.cn/90001/90778/9...252.html#liuyan Edited October 20, 2009 by whome?

jemmyell Posted October 22, 2009 Report Share Posted October 22, 2009 Terminal 3 rocks! I spent 4 hours outbound and 8 hours inbound (with my wife inbound) on our last trip. Once I was in Bejing I went straight to Starbucks. Then we had dinner at the Kenny Rogers chicken place upstairs. Free WiFi in the Starbucks. They let us sit there for 5-1/2 hours! I bought a coffee, then when the employees started giving me the "haven't you finished that yet" look my wife bought a juice drink. Lots of really modern totally clean restrooms. A large variety of food. It is the best airport I have ever been in! Now, LAX... -James Link to comment
Aggiefan85 Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 I honestly don't think the Beijing airport is that great... I have been through many international airports around the world and I have to say my favorite is AUS (Austin Bergstrom International Airport). It offers great local food, nice bars, live music, wide open space and cleanliness all around. The Good: Hong Kong (HKG)Dallas (DFW) - especially the D terminal The Bad: Tokyo (NRT) - This airport has the worst food selection for its size. Everything else is great.London (LHR) The Ugly (The absolute dumps): Miami (MIA) - The worst of the worstHouston (HOU)Manaus (MAO) Link to comment
