Top 10 reasons John Wayne is better than LAX.
Jill is off to Boston, while dropping her off I came up with this list.
Top 10 reasons John Wayne is better than LAX:
- When dropping somebody off, you can get out of the parking structure before they get to their gate.
- There isn’t a giant waste of space in the middle of the airport discised as a resturant.
- When coming home you are not passed by two cops going 100+MPH.
- When the captain cuts the power on take off it feels like a rollercoaster.
- It doesn’t take 45 minutes to get to and from the airport.
- You can spot your house while turning onto base.
- There is less chance of getting your flight cancelled due to a bomb scare.
- The OC jet set crowd is hotter than LA’s.
- No drug dogs.
- SNA doesn’t sound like something you take to clean out your body.
There is no better way to start a day than a “Kick in the Pants” Noise Abatement takeoff from SNA!
I think some pilots call John Wayne the “USS Orange County” because the takeoffs and landings are like an aircraft carrier.
Top 10 reasons LAX is better than John Wayne:
1. The screening gate in OC is way understaffed and the lines created are unacceptable — I see people miss their flights all of the time there.
2. There is a great bar/restaurant in the middle that has a unique architecture — OC people like everything to look the same.
3. When coming home, you are not passing so many cops waiting to give you a ticket.
4. The rollercoaster is not fun for everyone, smoother take-offs and landings are at LAX.
5. Those of us who live in LA county and realize there is more to life outside of the OC curtain, have a closer commute to LAX.
6. You can spot historical landmarks while on approach to land. To the OC “spot your house” — REALLY? Don’t they look all the same even up close???
7. There is less of a chance of having to land in Ontario and having to take a bus to OC because of limited operating hours.
8. The pretentious OC jet set crowd is in fewer numbers at LAX. SNAers, Hotter or more arrogant?
9. Drug Dogs — and other methods of better security.
10. Prices are better and more flights are available at LAX — there are better reasons to choose an airport than for its name.
