We're So Not Alone In Hating Heathrow

You couldn't accuse us of being big fans of London's Heathrow airport. If the ridiculous drama of the opening of T5 wasn't enough to put us off, delays and lost baggage are another Heathrow specialty.

And guess what: The world agrees. A recent survey found that frequent travelers voted London Heathrow as the worst airport in the entire world. CGD in Paris is the second worst, while Hong Kong's main airport came in first at the right end.

Personally, we've only had horrific experiences at Heathrow, from fainting in passport control lines to nearly missing planes because of overzealous security checks. With the British government slapping on extra fees for us to fly out of London, we're thinking a Heathrow boycott is definitely in order. Sorry, Brits. Nothing personal.
