Worst Airport to Taxi Around?

[KingAirer]

Whats the worst airport to taxi at? Take in to consideration poor design, safety, and length.

DTW or DFW come to mind??

Taxiways

Has got to be Paris Charles-De-Gaulle on all counts. Esp terminal 1.

DFW is pretty easy once you get the hang of things, the ATL guys hate it because alot of them don't get out here much and it's strange at first. ORD is pretty intense if you've never been there before just because of the speed at which the controllers talk, but once you've done it a few times it's no harder than any other airport. ATL has to be the easiest airport to taxi and fly out of given the amount of traffic they have (first or second busiest).

IAH

Take Whiskey Foxtrot to Charlie Alpha to Bravo Zulu to Delta Juliet, follow the 737 coming out of Mike Echo, left on Papa Quebec, right on Romeo Alpha......

Who's the jackhole who named the taxiways there? He needs a swift kick in the n*ts!

I will have to agree with ORD

RJAA -- Narita Japan (Tokyo)

2 runways now and a real nightmare. 6-7 controller changes to taxi from runway to apron.

DFW, IAH, and ORD.

I agree with those who nominated IAH. Whoever named those taxiways should be hung by his balls. The northwest corner of the airport is completely confusing with two names for every taxiway....I just taxi to the gate and avoid other planes, to hell with the taxi instructions. They're just way too confusing. DFW, LAX, SFO, etc are a walk in the park in comparison.

CYYZ- hands down... always a pain in thy a$$ when weather is down. Not very effective flows and delays are always to be had especially when one needs to get deiced- Gotta fly back there on tuesday and really not looking forward to it.


no joy-

DTW, ATL, DFW, IAH, have always been pretty effective in my opinion.
STL on some fridays have also been "no joy" -
