| - I never thought I'd write a review for an airport terminal, but wow.
Now, I don't fly a whole heck of a lot, but I AM in the hospitality biz, and as such I keep up on airports because when a guest says that they just flew in from So Cal, I want to know if they flew in from Bob Hope, John Wayne, or LAX, because then I can gauge their mood. (Anyone who's flown in So Cal recently knows what I mean.)
McCarran, as far as airports go, is already pretty darn good. It's pretty spacious so you rarely get that crowded feeling, enough shops and eateries to tide the time over (of course, at astronomical prices though), and a good number of outlets to plug in and kill time without killing your battery.
Terminal 3 doubles down on that. Very spacious, clean as a whistle, clearly marked gates with departing info clearly posted. Plenty of food venues in the terminal as well (still astronomical). Security moves pretty quickly; I rarely have to wait. The best part though? Not nearly as many slot machines as in T1. I work in a casino/resort/hotel, so the last thing I want to hear is a one-armed bandit clanging away, PLEASE! Isn't that the whole point of vacation? So yay for that.
JetBlue makes most, if not all, of their flights out of T3 now, so I'll be trying to fly them more often to utilize this little traveler's oasis.
