When Mitch Geriminsky and I went to Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas last year to see the John Wayne: An American Experience exhibit at the Fort Worth Stockyards, he arranged for our flight to land and depart from Dallas Love Field. I was glad of that as Love Field is a much smaller airport than Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport and far easier to navigate.
Travel + Leisure has posted an article on the best and worst small airports in the U.S. Of the airports they mentioned, I have been to one of them, the Ellison Onizuka Kona International Airport on the Big Island of Hawaii. It is what they call one of the best ones, by the way.
They begin their article with:

On the other hand, they can also come with a side of frustration, with fewer flights options and without the larger staffs major airports benefit from. So, research company ValuePenguin looked at the nation's 50th to 150th largest airports to find the best and worst small-scale American airports to fly into.
