Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport falls somewhere in the bottom-middle when it comes to the wide spectrum of airports in the states. I didn't encounter anything as bad as some of the more negative reviews here, but it also lacked modern conveniences and has a nonsensical design. In short, it did the bare minimum as far as transitioning me into my destination.
Least impressive to me was the food selection. A couple fast food joints and a lot of magazine stands but little else, at least in my terminal. Do I want an energy bar or a double cheeseburger? Lack of options makes for one cranky traveler. The Wifi wasn't working at all on my departure and I was forced to use my phone as a hotspot. Apparently I wasn't the only one, according to the blabbermouth next to me.
On the plus side, I did breeze through check in and security. I think that had more to do with the timing of my flights than anything.
