Kansas City International Airport Ranks #3 Large Airport In Annual J.D. Power Airport

The glass jetways are awesome!
The art sucks. We are the city of fountains so we made an electric one to represent the future but it already looks old and shitty. I bet the real reason it is designed without water is simply the cost.
The display about brutalist architecture is cool.
I prefer to spend as little time and money in a ****ing airport as possible, nothing about the place helps me.

This is where I'm at. I'm removed from the controversy. All I remembered about KC were that those small security lines were worth more than the yuppie eateries and outdated booshie flair. Seemed like KC had the right idea but we live in a society of superficial redditors so they had to tear it down and build out something that eventually always leads to this...

Wait. KCI is going to turn into the busiest airport in the USA?

I used to fly every week for work. I preferred the old airport and the easy arrival and departures

But it is what is is

I'm with you, from 2000 - 2013 I was out of town for two to three weeks a month, and the old MCI was a dream... But now I get to walk buy restaurants that pretty-much aren't open when travelers need/want them to be.

I know the TSA didn't like the old design, they were required to have too many checkpoints throughout the three terminals, and the lines were too convenient for their liking.

That said, I have TSA Precheck, Clear, and (for my return) global entry, so often times I do get to skip a lot of the hassle many people have to endure. All are well worth the money IMO.

I'm just waiting for any of the "great things the new terminal will enable" to happen.
