PORTO AIRPORT GOOD CITY TRANSFER

Advantages: Modern Airport friendly and close to city.
Disadvantages: None.

..., clean report. The row of Car Hire Desks also at this end of the arrivals. There are also a few shops and cafe. Went to Tourist Information Booth as we had been told this the place to get Metro Tickets. As it turned out there are ticket vending machines at the Metro stop which do have an english language button, so you can be instructed thru the process. But this time we purchased them at the Info Desk. You buy a card called an ANDANTE (About 50 cents) this is then charged with the amount for the trip, in this case we were going 4 zones to city centre, but even so total for the two cards and two journies 3 euro 70 cents, very good for a transfer. I would think the Andante card is similar to the Oyster card in that you can then put more credits on it at the Ticket machines. You need to validate the ticket before boarding...

Review of Porto Airport, Portugal

Belfast City airport - the airport IN Belfast

Advantages: In Belfast, very much expanded, convenient
Disadvantages: Limited retail facilities

...Continuing my reviews of Northern Irish airports, I thought that I should add a new review to those on Belfast City airport, because, wow!, this place has improved. Basically, a few years ago Belfast City airport really was not much to write home about. Now, it has majorly expanded. It still caters mainly to the domestic flights, but that is a major market for people from Northern Ireland, as we have to fly to get to most places! Easyjet is at Belfast International (Aldergrove), but there are some low cost flights into Belfast City (check out British European). Belfast City airport is conveniently located in Belfast (its major selling point), and is easily reached by car. It is also (in my opinion) better served by public transport than Belfast International, if only because a taxi ride to any of the connections is not going to...

Review of Belfast City Airport

GREAT NEW CITY AIRPORT

Advantages: Clean and really Efficient
Disadvantages: none so far

...Well Belfast is lucky to have 2 Airports that compete with each other , Aldergrove which is 30 Mins drive from the City Centre or The much improved City Airport which is less than 10 Mins by car.Both are served by buses from the centre and there will soon be a rail station by the city airport although passengers are bussed from the nearby Sydenham Station. Aldergrove is a large shopping complex and eaterie with International and low cost airlines flying from it. Belfast City is the business for business, why?. From the front entrance to the plane is a short walk with check in on the left and a shop for newspapers etc that you can pass to get to the departure lounge all within 100yds. Once in the departure lounge there is a smoking area next to the bar / Snack area with Television , internet access points and telephones so who needs...

Review of Belfast City Airport

Alicante Airport

Advantages: Good location, decent amenities
Disadvantages: Can't think of any

...I use Alicante airport for my annual break in Spain and find it is convenient and fairly easy to use. It is situated just outside Alicante on the Costa Blanca, around 46.5km from Benidorm. It is within driving distance of Valencia, around two hours and 179km. Arrivals You would probably fly to Alicante if you were staying in Benidorm, Torrevieja, Altea, Calpe, Moraira or Teulada. It is popular with budget airlines such as Easyjet and Bmibaby and there are flights from many regional airports in the UK such as East Midlands, Liverpool, Bristol, Newcastle and Stansted to name a few. There are around ten car hire companies who operate out of the airport including the big names like Avis, Europcar and Hertz, these desks are located in the arrivals hall and can get busy at peak times. There are also local car hire companies who...

Review of Alicante Airport

Limited Facilities, Nice Enough Airport

Advantages: good location for northern Poland, quiet, small,
Disadvantages: very limited shopping and catering

...Gdansk Airport (officially named Lech Walesa Airport) is located in the village/suburb of Rebiechowo within about a half hour's minutes drive from most areas of Tri-City (many outlying suburbs will be closer, though). Public transport links are good to Gdansk itself, but much worse to Gdynia or Sopot. Licences taxis are widely available and would normally cost something in the region of 60PLN plus, but this vastly varies depending on where you actually going. The airport has served international flights (to Scandinavia and Germany) for years now, but has became much more busy in the recent years (and in particularly with an advent of cheap flights in the form of Ryanair and Wizzair) In addition to several daily commuter-type flights to Warsaw, decent connections to Germany (including Frankfurt, Bremen, Hamburg and Munich...

Review of Gdansk airport

chicago airport

Advantages: Gets me from A to b efficiently
Disadvantages: It's an airport!

...Chicago airport. On a recent visit to san Diego, we had to have a stop in Chicago airport for a couple of hours...most of my travelling seems to be spent in airports! It was the busiest airport in the United States until Atlanta became the busiest and it was apparently voted best airport in North America in 2000...that's 8 years ago so i don't know which airport has been winning since then. The airport is 20 miles from downtown Chicago but since we weren't actaully going to Chicago we didn't actally leave the airport so I can't comment on the transport links. **The Terminals** Of course when stuck in an airport these are the places you see most often. There are 4 terminals and strangely enough these are Terminals 1, 2, 3 and Terminal 5 which is the International Terminal...whatever happened to number 4? All of the terminals are...

Review of Chicago Airport

The Airport That?s Bigger Than a City

Advantages: Well laid out, plenty of signs and clean
Disadvantages: Far away from where I live

...18 months ago it was London Heathrow. That changed, however, when I immigrated to Morgantown, W.Va., when Pittsburgh International Airport or PIT became my local airport. LHR was just 15 minutes or 8 miles from where I lived in Ruislip, whereas PIT is nearly two hours, nearly 80 miles away and in the next state! ** Location ** Situated 16 miles northwest of downtown Pittsburgh in Findley Township, PIT is on the far west side of the state of Pennsylvania. It is made up of four areas, occupies 12,900 acres of ground and is twice the size of the city of Pittsburgh. It?s the fourth largest airport in the United States, behind Miami, Fla., (MIA), Los Angeles International, Calif., (LAX) and John F. Kennedy (JFK) in New York. ** History ** PIT is one of the most modern airport terminal complexes in the world. Opened in October 1992, it...

Review of Pittsburgh Airport (PIT)

I believe I can fly ...... TO LONDON !!!

Advantages: Location, Variety of Shops & Restaurants, Public Transport Links
Disadvantages: Expensive Bars, Limited Flights,

...Before I get too carried away with this review let me warn you that this does go on for quite a while. However, I feel it only fair that you are all made fully aware of the facilities on offer at London City Airport I had cause to travel to London last week with business from Manchester to attend a seminar within the financial district. Upon being told this by my manager with about 2 weeks notice, I was faced with the dilemma of arranging my travel itinery. Effectively, I was faced with 3 options: 1. Drive, which didn't exactly fill me with excitement at the thought of a 600 mile round trip to attend a 4 hour seminar. 2. Get the train, which once again was a two and a half hour journey in both directions, plus associated tube journeys. Another downside to this alternative was the astronomical fares which were charged...

Review of City Airport, London

Belfast International Airport

Advantages: Internet, Cheap car parking
Disadvantages: Can get boring after 18 hours

...Belfast International Airport (Belfast Aiport) I flew out of belfast airport around four years ago, when I did fly out of the airport it was a bad time to fly out. The day before we where to depart to orlando the shoe bomber came on the scene! So the airport secuirty was put up. But the airline I was travelling with most of their planes had Technical difficuilties. So I was delayed for 30 hours and had to stay in the Hilton over night. So I should be able to tell you enough about it as I was in it for 24 hours. Area... The Belfast airport isn't in belfast, it is closer to Antrim a city near belfast. The airport is around 12 or 13 miles away from Belfast. So I don't know why they called it Belfast International Airport. But there is a hotel beside the airport. So if you have a early flight and you coudn't be bothered to get up...

Review of Belfast International Airport

On The Doorstep Of Heathrow Airport

Advantages: nice rooms, convenient location, lovely pool bar
Disadvantages: Parking and food were a little on the expensive side

...I stayed at the Sheraton Skyline hotel near Heathrow airport in September 2007 before I flew out on my annual holiday. I booked this hotel because according to their website, it is literally on the doorstep of Heathrow Airport. Room Our room was located on the 10th floor but sadly the room overlooked the hotel car park but to be honest this wasn?t a problem because we weren't staying here for the view! Our room was very large, much bigger than I expected for the price I paid. The bed was extremely large, probably about 6 feet wide and very comfortable. It certainly left us both feeling like we had a decent nights sleep. The room also had two wardrobes, an office desk and chair and a lamp on either bed side table. There was also a fully stocked mini bar but to be honest the prices were so extortionate that we didn?t even bother...
