I have always loved airports. My mom used to work for American Airlines and so we would get to travel for cheap (no, it wasn't for free, but it was the next best thing).

In my early 20s, I wanted to be a flight attendant for Southwest Airlines. I didn't make it past the second interview, darn it!

My favorite airport is Seattle International Airport. It's close by where I live, it has cool artwork, and I've traveled out of there so much, I pretty much know exactly where to go to reach my departure gate.

My next favorite airport would have to be in Las Vegas! The Harry Reid Airport might seem over the top, especially if you tend to get over stimulated by bright lights, but it has slot machines to play while you wait! I also love the fact that I can get through the TSA security check fairly quickly.

No matter which airport you're traveling from, it's a good idea to arrive a couple hours before your flight and depending on your airport, be prepared for long wait times and large crowds.
