How might one describe the sentiment of this review?
This airport is just kinda weird. I went to the Caribbean via US Air and had to transfer here twice. The first time I was able to sneak onto the early flight in the adjacent gate, so I didn't spend much time here. The second time though, I had a 3 hour layover, so I was able to do some wandering. Customs and Immigration was about average in terms of time and service. When I got through, I had to go through security again. This was the main weird part for me. There was a VERY high tech security scanning system that was not your typical metal detector. You have to stand and turn and then they scan you. JFK is my main airport, and nothing there even comes close to the CIA system in place here. And it's safe to say JFK has a much higher demand for an elaborate security system than CDT. My next complaint was that the result of this security system, the line moved verrrryyyyyy slowwwwly. It was not streamlined at all, and it took much longer than necessary because the employees were just really laid back and not in any rush. This didn't affect me because I'm a lunatic who leaves exorbitant amounts of time in between airline connections, but it IS a US Air hub and some people need to make their connections! Pick up the pace guys! Once I got through, there was a nice central atrium with Adirondack chairs and then dated low-ceilinged hubs with generic seating areas. The central atrium was actually pleasant to spend some time in. As far as food goes, there was typical stuff, but also a Papa John's. It's nice to not have to rely on Sbarro and Famous Famiglia, and my Papa John's was pretty tasty. If I wasn't traveling alone, I probably would have chosen the tequila driven Tex Mex place too, which had a bar and some tables....Possible answers:
A). negative
