text: Ay, what can I say? It's an AIRPORT. By American Airport standards McCarran probably ranks about a four. But anyone who's been to Chiangi Airport in Singapore or Munich Airport or even Bangkok Airport can tell you how inefficiently even the most efficient airport in America operates.\n\nNonetheless, check-in at McCarran was fast and easy and despite the long security line I got through pretty quickly which was great since I was hung over.\nFrom there getting to my gate was not a problem. I have to say that TSA at McCarran were the nicest and most laid back I've experienced at any airport in this country. \n\nAgain, citing my hungover state, it would have been nice to have more food (as in hangover food) venues in my immediate gate area. A smoothy wasn't going to cut and the lone Mexican place had a long line (and the site of margaritas scared me and sent me in the other direction)\nSo for America, not a bad airport.
