1 | Easy in and out, love that part! TSA security is the worst. No help, no smiles, to slow, don't care. No preferred line.\n\nGenerally a dirty airport (delta terminal).

1 | The airport itself has not much to complain about, to me a typical airport with 5 terminals and none particularly difficult to get to.
