"The Airport is filthy"

(United States)

Not Verified | Please do a better job supervising the people who are being paid to clean. The Airport is filthy. The only time I have seen it cleaned up is when Pope Francis visited. Disgraceful! I would rather drive to BWI then fly out of Philly.

"Distance between gates is long"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Distance between gates is long without mass transit or enough moving sidewalks. Year-round, you have to exit the building, in all weather scenarios, and board a shuttle bus to gates. Thus might not be so bad if the shuttle stopped at each terminal, but it does not, so wherever you need to go, there us still walking involved, sometimes back to the gate you need but just drove past. When landing, American Airlines said they were holding connecting flights, but mine was gone when I reached the gate after having to wait for then hop the shuttle bus. Then, when I wanted to go back, from gate F to Gate B to get a hotel room, I was told the shuttle was closed for the night .. it was not yet 9 p.m. When I asked an AA manager for a ride on a cart from F to B, he denied my request. This is unacceptable for any airport to treat passengers in this manner, but really not a good look for the city of brotherly love! For the most part, no one who worked in the airport or for AA seemed to care one iota!

"I did not enjoy my visit here"

(United States)

Not Verified | This airport is obviously not cleaned often, and not taken care of properly. The charging ports are also not in places accessible to people easily. The bathrooms are not clean and noticeably unsanitary. The whole airport is dirty and dull. I did not like the attitude of the security when my family and I were going through check in. This website is glitchy as well. My flight was also delayed. I did not enjoy my visit here!

"It’s dirty, old and broken"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Sadly as a local resident I have witnessed the continual deterioration of PHL. Is there any money being invested here? If there is it’s invisible. The overall look is tired. Almost every terminal has a different look; many of them very aged and dirty. The lack of TSA check points is sub par for an airport this size. So much of the overall équipent is broken. Today several escalators were out of service. In terminal A East the security line snaked back since only one X-ray Machine worked. At the gate the scanner didn’t work and the gate agents had to manually enter passengers on a computer. I can well imagine the poor impression this airport gives visitors and anyone thinking of establishing or expanding business here. Bottom line it’s no surprise PHL ranks at the bottom of customer surveys. It’s dirty, old and broken. The real question is will anything be done to make it significantly better?

"didn’t care about being nice to people"

(United States)

Trip Verified | I’m honestly embarrassed at the service of the Philadelphia airport employees. Just got off an international flight and was greeted by a rude, shouting man after getting though customs. When I suggested he be nicer to the people who weren’t given instruction and didn’t speak English, he told me he “didn’t care about being nice to people.” Well, then you probably shouldn’t be working with people if you feel that way. If you refuse to do your job right, get a new job. This man should not be the first thing foreigners see when then step foot on US soil.

"Philadelphia airport is a disgrace to the city"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Is there a minus number you can give an airport? I fly weekly all over the country and international, Philadelphia airport is a disgrace to the city. It’s like stepping into a 3rd world country. Homeless, filthy, nothing works, dirty floors, poor food and bad lounges. Don’t feel safe.

"The worst experience ever"

(United States)

Trip Verified | I would never recommend for anyone to fly out of this airport, unless there is a complete and fluid change in how TSA are trained not only in security but customer service. First let’s start with the disrespectful and unprofessional staff. My family and I missed our flight due to asking for directions of where to go and we were not only sent in the wrong direction but multiple TSA employees told us they could not help us and to keep moving ! Some even ignored us and did not respond to our request for help at all. Very unprofessional and not welcoming at all for this so called city of brotherly love. The worst experience ever. What I can say is there was a manager who stepped in to help the best she could with getting us stand by seats as they became available. Thank you for this.

"never fly through this airport"

(United States)

Trip Verified | Worst airport I have even been in. Used the restroom, 2 of the 3 stalls where locked and out of service. Went to another restroom. It was very dirty and there was graffiti all over. There was no hand soap. I got off an international flight and I had to leave and go back through security. This was bad because the things I purchased in the other airport like water I wasn't allowed to take with me. The people at the counter where rude. I will never fly through this airport again.

"This airport was awful"

(United States)

Not Verified | Flew home to Cleveland from Paris through Philadelphia. This airport was awful. It's a dirty place and there are many rude staff - TSA, Police, Customs, others. There was only one TSA Pre-check in Terminal 3. We had to exit Terminal 1 and take a bus to Terminal 3. The TSA line there was very long. I should have just stayed in Terminal 1. Now I have to take a bus to Terminal 7. Along the way, I met rude staff who yelled at me when asking for directions. There is a lot of yelling and rarely a "please". Staff engage with each other instead of passengers. I mentioned this to a stranger while waiting in line and he stated, "You're in Philadelphia". This airport does not have much brotherly love.

"filthy floor covered in urine"

(United States)

Not Verified | Arriving from the beautiful Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport which is large, clean and well maintained. After a 4.5 hour flight I needed to use the restroom. Toilets are scarce and filthy floor covered in urine. Employees standing around. Go clean the restrooms.
