For anybody else with an IQ above room temperature who might not know the score . . . THE NEW KANSAS CITY AIRPORT IS STALLED AND WON'T BE FIGURED OUT UNTIL AFTER THE 2019 ELECTIONS SO THAT COMPANIES WILL KNOW WHO TO BRIBE . . . But here's "news" for the plebs in between lawn care commercials.

  1. “A new ranking puts Kansas City International Airport second worst in North America.”

    Says who? That’s news to me and probably most of us too.

  2. Edgemore took a street corner poll outside City Union Mission last week and came up with the rankings. Question #1: If we dropped you bums off at the airport at 2am and there was no place to get a drink, how would you rate our airport?

  3. From the very beginning, this fiasco has been like a group of elementary school kids play "let's build an airport".
    All the endless hype about KCMO being a big time major league "smart" city with a vibrant urban downtown and cutting-edge toys like streetcars, but when you look at how things REALLY are done, it's an amateurish joke.
    And the local media just keeps gobbling up all the Go4KC crap.
    What are those 25 million tourists to do?
    Hahahahaha!!

  4. The Lego's store in Crown Center could do a better job building/designing an airport than Edgemoor.

  6. fake news reporters who write stuff that many people know firsthand to be false are why most people don't trust the media now.

    kci is not the worst airport in america for travelers nor anywhere close to the worst.

  9. Remember all the people who have been pushing for this from the beginning literally were not smart enough to understand how much of a clusterfuck it would be. These are not serious minded p eople

  10. Due to the geniuses of the cookingham era, the airport is in Iowa (they also gave us the downtown freeway noose). Expensive remodels won't change that fact that it was stupid to annex so much far-flung Platte county land just like it was stupid to rip the shit out of so many core neighborhoods (west side, Columbus park, south humboldt etc etc) for the downtown freeway noose. We are stuck with the reality and should just cope with it and not go broke. -radish

  11. The purpose of these meetings is to prepare the public for the sticker shock when the price is announced. It will easily be $3 Billion . Look at CFRG's Facebook page to see why the design as proposed will not be approved by the FAA. How many letters has the aviation department received from the FAA declining their proposals?

  12. why not do it right and spend whatever it takes to be rated number one in the usa?

    travelers are paying, not taxpayers, and travelers will be happy to pay more for a superior experience.

    MKCIGA!

  13. Well I can't wait to ride the new roller coaster that is being installed at the airport. What? No roller coaster? No pony rides? No circus clowns? Hmmmmm.....what a crummy airport this will be.
