Hey, there's a Superdawg Potbelly in Midway too, so you can score a solid meal before making the trek to the Heights.

Here's one: Next month I'm flying into Chicago to see my brother play at the state tennis tournament, which is in and around Arlington Heights. 

If I fly into Midway, what's the best way to get up in that area?  I'll have someone who can pick me up once I get closer to the area, but it'd be nice if they didn't have to come down to Midway.  Any suggestions?

Pay the extra $15 and fly into O'Hare?

Fuck that.  Even with riding the El dowtown and transfering to Metra is better than using O'Hare.  It may not be hell on earth, but it's at least purgatory.

You're not kidding, CT.  I was shocked at the lack of basic facilities, and at how little there was to do in order to while away the time until your flight.  For an international airport in a major city, it's a disgrace, to be honest.  The only one that's worse (for a major city) is JFK.  Charles de Gaulle in Paris, and Frankfurt also suck.  You should see Heathrow, or Gatwick (any of the London airports, actually), or Amsterdam Schiphol, or Munich though.  Magnificent.  Regular playgrounds, whether you're a cocksucker or not.

The airport in Seoul is really nice too.  It has spoiled me for most of the airports stateside.

The only Airport I've been to that's worse than O'Hare is Baghdad International.

I haven't been there, but I've heard from some people that Heathrow is an airport to avoid at all costs.  I think the main complaint was about the lines and congestion?  Just what I've heard though.

My experiences with this airport weren't good.  It was pretty dank.  There were lots of different languages being thrown at me.  NO ONE answered to "Frenchy!".   And the food was not good.  Not even close.  Just a bad, bad place.

Connected through Heathrow a few times recently and it's not horrible. But it wasn't on a Friday or Sunday or any kind of holiday. Maybe that helped. They just finished Terminal 5. Looking good!

And as Tonk said, if you want to spend a shitload of money then Heathrow is the place to be. It's like a mall, only way bigger.

You really should avoid going to Heathrow especially if you're trying to get to Arlington Heights.

If you're there on a Monday morning or a Friday afternoon, sure, it's pretty horrible.  But I've been flying in and out of Heathrow for years - for a long time I did it every week - without any problems, really.  They're pretty slick, the teething problems at T5 notwithstanding.

At Schiphol there's a champagne and oyster bar, and a casino.  In Bangkok you can get a massage while you wait for your flight.  Kuala Lumpur's pretty sweet, too.  I just don't understand why America's so far behind - in most things like this, you're World leaders.

So that Kansas City-Boston-Munich-Heathrow-Midway flight I bought on United was a bad deal?  For just $894?

At O'Hare there are McDonaldseseseses every three feet. So that's something.

Awful.

For that price? No, that's a great deal. Go with it.

You've been hanging out in the mens' room at Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport again, haven't you, Tonk?

Heathrow's a nightmare. 

The only two times I've ever lost my luggage happened at Heathrow both times, 5 years apart.

You know what Schiphol really needs, don't you?  I mean, when in Amsterdam...
