Worst Airport

1. Bombay, India

Why? Dirty, smelly, before check-in seats are uncomfortable (you fare better onceyou're past security), mosquitoes (make sure your malaria prescription is filled),loud, stench of "feces and urine", security ask for bribes, even Indians don't likepassing through this airport.

2. Cairo, EgyptWhy? Lots of good reports lately may actually get Cairo off theWorst List, but itwon't be seeing a spot on the Best List anytime soon.

dirty, insufficient seating, security ask for bribes, passports are taken and aresometimes difficult to retrieve.3. Chicago O'Hare, Illinois

Why? "Crap", "O'Hell", Uncomfortable hard plastic seats with armrests, oftencrowded with travellers stranded due to a snow storm, lots of securityannouncements, air-conditioning too cold (Children's play area is the only place

with heat), smells like "feet and broccoli", noise, "long walks" to find food,fluorescent lights buzz continuously.

will stand over you and stare", used syringes spotted in the bathroom,crowded.5. Jakarta, Indonesia

Why? Uncomfortable seating, possible requests for your passport "for safekeeping", security will want bribes, squat toilets, crazy people, women willlikely have problems travelling alone here, "poor people may attack you".

6. Kiev, UkraineWhy? Security want bribes, too cold, loud and incorrect announcements, poor lighting, "looks like a prison", "looks like a refugee camp", hard seats, squattoilets, cleaners will give you the scrub brush and tell you to clean thebathroom yourself if it is not to your liking.7.

8. Moscow Sheremetyevo, Russia

Why? Poor lighting, dirty, unsafe, small clusters of plastic seating, you have topay to use the bathrooms, looting of luggage by baggage handlers, metal

benches, noisy TVs, awful food, "scariest in the world...[deserving] a new iconof fright", "ghastly place", "Longest night of my life", crowded with mafia types,seats don't exist, strange characters.9. Paris Charles de Gaulle, France

Why? CDG is on the verge of becoming the worst airport simply because it issuppose to be a first class airport worthy of a first class city. Instead, even third
