text: With reviews on McCarran International Airport there is a great chance this review will be buried like a gambler in the desert Hopefully it will be accessable in the next couple of days With that said here is review on McCarran International Airport from this point foward referred to as McCarrannn Airports are very important Besides their primary purpose of serving air travelers they are a gateway to the city Airports give travelers their first and last impression of the city They are a reflection of the citynn McCarran is a first rate gateway to Las Vegas Going back to the s when I flew between McCarran and New York airports it left me with a positive first and last impression of Las Vegas It is a reflection of the good things about Las Vegas It is upbeat Coming off a long flight there is nothing more cheerful than hearing the bells of the onearm bandits To this day it is a welcoming sound after ending a vacation Like Las Vegas McCarran is modern The monorail between terminals is one of the first to be used at an airport Recently McCarran replaced the international terminal with a brand new stateoftheart facility Like Las Vegas McCarran features plenty of fast food restaurants and Starbucks The list of fast food restaurants keep growing As far as Starbucks they are at the majority of the terminals and even outside security at baggage claim Just like Las Vegas McCarran is crowded with long lines that move efficiently And just like Las Vegas I am a fan of McCarran
