DFW Airport
The DFW airport is the most confusing airport I have ever been to in my life. First of all there are 2 different ways you can get to the airport. You can leave the SMU campus driving on the same freeway but in different directions, you can either go north to the airport or south. Not only that but you can enter the airport on either side. Also you have to stop and take a ticket before entering the airport and you have to pay when you exit the airport. Furthermore, it seems like there are 50 different airlines and 8 different gates. There are a ton of roads and twist and turn and signs that look like they are above the same lane but there are three lanes so half the time I go on the wrong lane. I have driven to the airport twice to pick up my dad and a friend and both times I was late to get them because I got lost. The airport at home where I live is a piece of cake. You get off the plane walk about 30 steps to stairs go down the stairs and there are only 3 baggage claims, you get your bags within 10 minutes and then your out of there. I wish DFW was like that, whoever built DFW really had an imagination for making the most confusing airport in the world and I think he definately succeeded.

That airport is really bad. It's so dirty and confusing and everyone is really mean and not helpful. I try to stay as far away as possible from DFW.
I guess you just get used to it if that's the only airport you've ever known! I always thought it was fun to go to as a child because of the shops and restaurants. I have learned to never NEVER take a flight with a layover because it's horrific to race to the other terminals, even though they've installed the cool "floating" trams. Within a few years, you'll get used to it!
