Or the fact that the exhaust fans in every bathroom are either not turned on or died years ago. Nasty.

Okay I’ve wondered about this for a long time. About a year ago at my current company, flew in for the layover but incredibly late. Landed around 1am. Had to adjust show time, etc. Got down to the train, nothing running. Of course. We remembered there was a bridge to the main building, so thankfully we were parking at A something and we eventually got to the curb to find a taxi.

so the trains really stop every night? What happens if you’re out at B and C?

I welcome you to Phoenix Sky Harbor, America’s Friendliest™ America’s Tastiest Airport™. Similar problem. Some master plan for the sky train to go out to the rental car center. They shut the train down every night at 10pm for “testing,” which has been occurring for about a year and a half now. No end in sight. At times, the entire curb for rental car looks like a Disneyland queue.

And about 100 homeless living in every corner of the upper mezzanines. Oh and don't forget about the 20 cars and catalytic converters that somehow get stolen everyday under the top notch airport security systems. Almost third world!

The airport is run by incompetent fools.
It was state of the art when it opened in 1995. It was in the Boonies and way too big for its time then. I recall flying in there 97/98 and it wasn’t too busy. It just has not kept up with times.

Unfortunately it seems to be a common trend in this country with infrastructure not keeping up with demand.

If you want to be Denver based I would recommend United. We have mid level seniority captains jumping ship for the Denver base currently.

Newest rumor is a San Juan base, can I interest you in some hurricanes and mofongo?

Crime rate is about the same, maybe better in SJU, but no federal income tax would be a huge plus.
