    This place looks old and dilapidated. Its a zoo and the customer service is terrible. You can just hear customers arguing with people at the counter and they are arguing back!!

    DO NOT fly United. So disorganized and rude. I had read poor reviews of them before and have finally experienced it myself. I will never use that airlines again if I want to reach my destination!

    Worst airport ever when it comes to mid-day security breaks. They shut all the security lines for extended periods of time regardless of volume of travelers in line.

    Easily the worst immigration queue, every single time. 2hrs seems standard if you arrived on an A380.
