"Whether it's for wasting time or numbing travel headaches, bars and restaurants pouring booze are valuable oases in the airport ecosystem. But not all airports are equal when it comes to imbibing. Putting that in stark relief is a ranking from travel-finance site Upgraded Points, The Best U.S. Airports for a Boozy Layover, which gives top billing to the East Coast and trashes the Bay Area's Oakland airport."
"Best U.S. airports for drinkers by Upgraded Points 1 Logan International Airport (BOS) 2 Nashville International Airport (BNA) 3 Kansas City International Airport (MCI) 4 Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) 5 Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) 6 Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport (MSP) 7 San Diego International Airport (SAN) 8 Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) 9 LaGuardia Airport (LGA, or New York City) 10 Harry Reid International Airport (LAS, or Las Vegas)"
Upgraded Points ranked U.S. airports for drinkers using concentration of bars and restaurants, accessibility (venues per 10,000 passengers) and quality (Google-review stars). Logan International Airport in Boston finished first, reflecting strong venue concentration and ratings. The ranking favors many East Coast airports and includes a top-ten list featuring Nashville, Kansas City, Reagan National, and New Orleans. Oakland San Francisco Bay Airport placed 49th, suffering from poor accessibility and fewer high-rated bars, with limited restaurant overlap for pairing food with drinks. The assessment highlights variation among airports in bar availability, accessibility, and perceived quality.
