An interesting question but I haven´t been to too many just 3:

Ýstanbul Atatürk Airport, Lyon Saint-Exupery Airport and Amsterdam Schiphol Airport.

 Well, you got the best....

 Maybe you are right. Amsterdam airport is really good, I liked especially the fact that there´re trains accessible directly from the airport to anywhere in the Netherlends. In Istanbul it´s not that practical.

hmmm just this year......in chronological order

gatwick -ternerife 

gatwick(again)- antalya

stanstead - londonderry NI

gatwick - pafos

stanstead - gerona

still to come this year

dublin

Well, I actually hate that airport in Amsterdam, it´s the only one that asks the 3 big questions: have you packed the bags yourself, has anybody give you any items to carry, have your bags been in your possession all the time!!!!!???

Nobody else does it except for Amsterdam airport!!! I am trying to avoid connecting there at all cost!

 Nope. At London Heathrow they ask the same.

 All of the states do it as well....they are the dumbest questions.  No, of course my bag hasn´t been in my possession nor did I pack it.   That´s what I would love to say!  

Hahaha, then you will enjoy this video: Airport Security

 Bag?  What bag?  OH! That was the bag that nice man in the turban was carrying.  He got a phone call, dropped it, and started running.  I just figured I would hand it to you to put in lost and found.

Hey ladies, where are your lists?

Amsterdam Schiphol

Athens

Münster

Münich

Köln/Bonn

Chania (Crete)

Istanbul Atatürk

Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen

Ýzmir Adnan Menderes

I especially come to Amsterdam Schiphol a lot because my connecting train to university goes from there I often think I should get another connection instead.

As for questionary: 2 weeks ago upon arrival in Cologne, they took me aside and unpacked my entire suitcase just next to where ´unquestioned´ people proceeded. I asked if this was general procedure ´yes it was, especially for people travelling alone´. Well I travel from Cologne frequently and Ive never been through this procedure. They were making a problem of the cellphone I bought in TR (a ´gift´ and I had to pay a fee on the 2nd cigarette box I bought. Id rather have them sealing my luggage and xraying it many times instead of having a strange man going through my luggage in public!

I don’t know all the airport names but I will put them in where I know them. Here is my non-alphabetized list -

San Francisco - Los Angeles - Portland - LaGuardia - Midway - O’Hare - Sky Harbor - Phoenix - McCarran - St. Louis - Denver - Reagan National - Hartsfield - Heathrow - Athens - Tehran - Kerman - Auckland - and Melbourne

Edit - Don´t know how I could...but I forgot Montego Bay!!!

Billund - Copenhagen - Hamburg - Amsterdam Schiphol - Köln - München - Paris Charles de Gaulle - London Gatwick - London Heathrow - Milan Malpensa - Venice - Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen - Istanbul Atatürk - Ankara - Antalya - Van - Miami Intl. - Orlando

Maybe a couple more. Now that you mention Schiphol, my experience is that it´s great  for transfer, but if you are checking in there for the first time it´s hard to find one´s way. But nothing beats Paris CDG - I´ve never seen such a chaotic airport, never! Once on a connecting flight for Istanbul I almost didn´t make it though I was running through the airport, only stopping at signs for directions, which were so cluttered. Finally I made it as the last person boarding, only to learn that my baggage didn´t - apparently they didn´t have enough time to bring that I´m definitely going to avoid CDG at any cost in the future.

 All the British airports ask this!

Thats is all I can remember, I am sure there are more.......................

Well, maybe it has changed lately. But the odd thing is that Amsterdam bugs people even though they are only connecting there!!! Everywhere else I have only encountered these dumb questions only at the place of departure!

We just don´t trust you Americans.... (even / especially if they are originally Polish ... )

Damn... you Dutch must be extremely intelligent to come up with such a sophisticated screening method! No criminal can pass through...

funny, but I was asked exactly the same questions at Ataturk airport, but it didnt bother me at all since the guy asking these questions was very handsome....   when he was done I asked "is that it"??   

 Finally! It took you some time, but now you know it!

Well, I had to do an unbiased, double-blinded, randomized control trial. I can´t only judge based on you and DK!

Ok, my airports: Warsaw, London, Amsterdan, Kennedy (NYC), Laguardia (NYC), Chicago, Cleveland, California (don´t remember the name ), Tucson, Houston, Frankfurt, Bahamas, Istanbul - Ataturk, Adana International Airport. Everywhere else I travelled by bus!

Abroad- Hearthrow, Charles de Gaulle, Berlin, Frankfurt, Ataturk, Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Foz de Iguazu, San Jose Costa Rica, Panama, Mexico City. 

I am quite jealous of these ones.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOORST

airport i have ever been to is the Cairo airport

OMG its filthy!!!!

really i swear! and the bathrooms ewwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!

But i just went there about  amonth ago to get my uncle fromthe airport and theyre making a  new extension THANK GOODNESSS!!!!

its REALLLY nice!

and theyer aming this huge mall there too and theyre making it all better thank goodness really it was horrrible! One of teh worst experiences EVER!!!

and the personnel are bad too!

nd last year Egypt Air air hostesses wre really ugly annd fat and stuff, but my cousin just came on it and he said its not bad really, he said tehyg oit a couple of new hot ones lol

anyway, the Jeddah airport isnt that nice either, but better than Cairo,

I didnt like JFK either, but the Riyadh airport is REALLY NICE!!! its really really really nice!

i loved it!

and the Omaha airport (omaha, NE) aint that bad either, its homey ,lol, but kinda small

 That is exacly why I havent been to Cairo

go next year

the extension wouldve opened

So you like being arrested???  All the UK airports ask the same question!  My 28 year old son went on holiday and when they asked him if he packed his own bag he truthfully said ´No, my mum did!´

  typical !!

No one asked me any of these questions. It´s weird.

And I´m really astonished you westerns travel so much, you must be really rich and have lots of time

I will tell you in secret that these ´westerners´ are either very old or live in the middle of nowhere -- that´s why they seem to ´travel that much´.

old? who is old ehh?  

 Sounds like the airport in Montego Bay.  HIDEOUS!  So dirty and dingy you don´t even want to breathe.

I admit I have lots of time (about 50 workdays off each year) but I´m not rich, I just save every month for a next vacation (which I can do since my divorce 3,5 years ago - getting rid of someone has it´s advantages.... ).

(And.... I´m NOT old!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Hmmm...

(Typical western woman will get married in early 30´s..stay married for around 10 years and the calculation is :

30+10+3.5=43.5 .. I will give an error margin +-5 years)

 10 must be 12.

This is such an exciting thread Trudy!!! Are you taking over as Head Listmaker???   

I just counted and found I´ve been to 23 (modify teaschip just reminded me of 2 more)- which surprised me I must say - but then I am quite old! 

I really can´t count (and can´t be bothered!) the number of airports I have been to as I used to travel a lot as part of my job.   I can´t help feeling this thread is a wee bit boastful, even though I am sure this is not the intention 

The topic is a copy from this: http://www.lonelyplanet.com/thorntree/thread.jspa?threadID=927330 nothing more, nothing less.

 As for me, nearly all the destinations are in Turkey and Germany, which means I am trying to get from my house to Kadir´s And I make time for it

And you may say that us ´westeners´ travel so much, but look at it this way: for me to fly to London, Paris or Berlin, is for an Istanbullu to go on holiday in Antalya or Bodrum   But this ofcourse, leaves all the ´over-ocean´ and far Asian destinations aside

Here is my list...I can´t remember all of the airport names..

USA- Cincinnati (CVG), Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton, Indianapolis, Lousiville,Memphis, St. Louis, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Burlington, JFK, Chicago, Charlotte, Ralieigh- Durham, New Orleans, Richmond, Tampa, Orlando, Daytona, Miami, Jacksonville, Dallas/Ft.Worth, Atlanta, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Tulsa, Las Vegas, Denver, Salt Lake City, Pheonix, Seattle, LA.

Abroad - Cancun, Montego Bay -Jamaica,  Queen Beatrix -Aruba, St. Thomas US Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Puerto Vallerta, Cabo San Lucas, Benito-Mexico City, Dublin-Ireland, Punta Cana, Bahamas, Luxembourg-Findel, Costa Rica, Barcelona

I don´t remember the names of all the airports but here is my list of the ones I can remember:

Frankfurt, Amsterdam (Shipol), Paris (Charles De Gaulle), Istanbul (Ataturk), Bodrum, Izmir,  Reykjavík, Shannon, London (Heathrow), NY (JKF), Boston (Logan), Providence (TF Green), Daytona, Cincinatti, Nashville, Houston (Bush and Hobby both), Chicago (OHare), Pittsburg, Philadephia, Dallas, Raleigh, Charlotte, West Islip (Long Island), Washington DC, Laguardia, Montego Bay, Kingston....sure there are a few more but that is generally it.

 That´s really phoneticly written....

Sorry, I will brush up on my Dutch!!

Brush up or attempt to learn this word?

 For people who can´t say SCH the way we can, yes

 Try to spit on the floor and you can....

 Been there done that

isn`t it pronounced like "skiphole"? I use that airport for connecting flights.

 No.. the CH sound in Dutch is a quite rough throat sound that not many foreigners can make, especially in combination with an S, it makes it sound harder and harder to pronounce as wel

 I bet you bed Dutch did that on purpose to listen to us foreigners try to say it.  You probably giggle behind our backs! 

One thing I do love about this airport....almost everyone who works there speaks English!  Bless all your Dutch hearts for that!!

Of course we did it on purpose....

But that ´sch´ is easy if you compare it to some of these:

http://www.uebersetzung.at/twister/nl.htm 

(Lots of giggles imagining you trying...   )

 Hahaha....very funny!  The Dutch can be so mean!!

I bet you english giggle about ppl with funny english (I know i do!!Im so bad lol)

But its soooo cute when somebody has bad arabic!!!

Really its soo cute!

 Are you kidding? Even the begger speaks fluent english in the Netherlands and I´m not kidding

 Can any non native have a good arabic?

Of COURSE alot of them do!

Especially turks believe me!

You should hear the turks here! You wouldnt know, and they learn so quickly, like in months! Which is UNBELIEVABLE arabic is sooo hard!

I mean, really, my arabic was really abd until last year, my brothers arabic is stil what they call here "crooked" or "broken" lol, but its cute!

I know! They even have perfect accent!

 Its really a misunderstanding that Dutch people have a good comprehension of English and a good English accent (or American whatsoever).  Maybe its because you tourists attrack educated people or smt or because you only visit the very touristic areas But I know a whole bunch of Dutch people who speak ´coal´ English with a very bad Dutch accent.

One only has to hear Balkenende (Harry Potter) speak English, and that is how the general Dutch speaking English sounds, if they would have their speeches written for them by someone fluently in English

I tend to think though, that because the Dutch language doesnt have a very strong accent or melody like for example French and German do, it is easier for native Dutch to learn to speak another tongue quite well.

 I´m starting to wonder the same about Turkish these days.. I´m so over my top of what I can learn here (without too much effort), that I can only hope I will move back before I lost it ´all´.

 The only way to get past intermediate level is to live here  ... that´s what I found!

 Very true. I already warned LIR for mine.....

 I will write a critique for Turkish Class!!! 

 Tell me when you post it, then I´ll have time to go underground....
