Jackson Jambalaya

I thought the state was taking over. I travel a lot. Worst airport in America. Next to Shreveport.

Sort of sounds like a crime to me. Just like the fire hydrant that was mistaken as city of jackson’s that was cut on last week that dropped service for hundreds of customers and it was another entity out of Raymond that owned it because a certain group who is running around cutting hydrants on didn’t understand that coj didn’t provide service to that area, but they do nearby. In the meantime I will use lower case letters when referring to the Capitol City until these hoodlums grow up.

I can barely afford to fly, much less afford anything they sell at those inflated prices.

Thanks but I’d rather swallow my spit and wait until Atl for water. Flowood toilet water just doesn’t sound good

I don't travel a lot but went through a 1/2 dozen airports in the past 6 months. Jxn, is one of the best. Mostly because of short lines, convenience, easy parking/picking up/dropping off. I could care less about food, drink and supplies sold at airports, but if you have an extremely long lay over those items may become important. I doubt there's may layovers there.

Unless someone else is paying for my flight, I fly out of New Orleans. The 2 hour drive is worth the $300 saved and 5 hours of layovers in ATL or DFW. I took my family to Mexico for vacation last year and saved over $2000 by flying out of Nola.

2:25- Are you on drugs? I fly a few times a month out of Jackson and it’s terrible. The escalators are always down. The elevators in the parking garage are often not working.

On a recent flight, they had to deboard planes and run an entire terminal back through security because someone didn’t calibrate a security machine properly.

The place is an absolute joke.

Terrible airport.

The joke's on you... you can't bring a full water bottle through security.

JAN is certainly not the worst airport in the country. I can park and be through security in less than 10 minutes. The rotating hall of fame for the board is stupid... but it's generally a pretty solid airport if you're flying in or flying out. If you're looking for entertainment or food and drink, don't come to an airport.

I drive to MSY when it suits me to have a direct flight. Otherwise, I fly all over the world through Jackson.

They had a water line break near the drop off exit. It looks pretty extensive. They had about a 12’ x 12’ hole dug, and they were working on it for several days. I think it is fixed now.

The ONLY reason I travel to RankinCounty is to visit the airport. I am scared of the people there. I am scared of the law enforcement there. I am scared to visit a bar there because I don’t want to get beat up., and I know with out of county plates I will be pulled over..

Meanwhile every airport in Asia is just awesome from Narita to Taipei and even Manila!

The airport is on a well water system. The water is sourced below ground on the airport property and held in the big orange and white water tank near the entrance.

Another one of Chucks new world order projects shining. Travel every two weeks out Chuck’s airport and have been doing so for 25 plus years. It started before he showed up. But for sure it has accerated down under his control. Pray for good leadership and positive changes one day.

At least the flights to Paris are running smoothly.

We need to starting planting colorful plants in the parking lot potholes.

The federal takeover does not involve any part of Rankin County. That's where the airport is located.

And it's Capital City, not Capitol City. I know it's confusing, but just remember...capitol refers to a building.

[That's a capital idea. We will meet in the capital city and tour the capitol.]

Oh, but dont dare to pull over to the curb to pick up your arriving family member from the last arriving flight of the evening. Eight guards are ready to SWAT you and write you a ticket!

I do this several times a year mostly in the middle of day, never once had a problem. You can't park there, have whoever landed call you when he/she s outside (with luggage and all), you then pick them up, easy peasy chicken squeezy.

I'm not a disabled fattie like 95% of the 'Sip, so I don't take stairs/escalators anyway for one floor, espcially when stairs are right there.

The typical Mississippi fatties have likely broken the escalators and elevators. Everything would be maintained but the funds have been used for a very expensive junket to Paris. We are still waiting for the glowing report on all of the business that junket has brought to Jackson. Right?

12:18/12:38 same person and hopefully getting paid to cheer for JAN.

To be fair, JAN is serviceable to me and sadly a little better than I expect from Jackson mgmt.

I don't need fancy amenities here (like food and coffee) but even for my lowered expectations, the bathrooms at luggage claim are quite embarrassing.

4:34 - That's because the bathrooms are not located at luggage claim. Maybe you've been taking a whiz at the car-rental counter.

Must be one of Jackson's finest that's a felon in possession.

Still waiting for the Federal Court.
