My hate list:

LAX-always long lines. Snarly employees. An outdated bus system to move between terminals. Sterile architecture. Not nearly enough food choices and not a thing before security. Wifi that cost $10 a day.

Miami-LAX east. Just add humid and stink

Pearson-Stupid long lines for Canadian or American customs. Poor food choices for such a large airport.

Ottawa-The US departures area is a joke. Connecting from a Canadian to a US flight was a head scratching process.Services were about on-par with the Abbotsford Airport

Vegas-the newer terminal is very average, however the older one is a hole. Nothing to do though really in either terminal except for play the slot machines which are set for intentionally low payouts.

Montreal-it took an hour to clear Canada customs including a 15 minute line just to hand in my Canadian customs card on the way out after baggage claim. Could not find poutine past security.

Boston/Logan-terrible traffic to the airport, confusing layout, cramped waiting areas, at least they had free wifi.
Customs in MTL was single handidly my worst experience with Canada Immigration.

They kept flipping between french and english as if it was a joke. Keep in mind it was Midnight, i missed my connection back home (to YVR @ the time) and i was the only one having my bag searched out of 100s.
