Fair, but Heathrow and Tegel and De Gaulle aren't exactly paradise.

A portion of De Gaulle collapsed and killed four people:

And they also stole a huge bag of my stuff there, years ago.

That was the nice part too. The old crapy dirty 70's contrete was the one left standing. But yeat given the choice I would avoid CDG.
To be fair to Tegel, it's been due to close for over half a decade now. It really hasn't seen any real investment in a long time as a result.
At least with tegel you don't have to walk forever and security lines are fast in my 2 time experience with it.
Perhaps. The TSA is obviously a big problem for American airports. I'm just saying that I can't think of a major airport that I've used and felt like it was a good experience, and the major airports I've been in outside of the US have not been substantially better, with the large and notable exception of the [lack of] TSA presence.
