I can honestly say that the quality of the airport has never once entered into my calculations for any of the cities that I have flown into. Convenience, cost, and available flight times…

My favorite India airport - Tiiruchirappalli LOL
(But they do have some cool temples there)

The Newark airport People Express terminal in the late 70s, early 80s was a nightmare.
The ceiling was maybe 9 feet high. People Express used to run a 747 on short haul flights to Boston and DC. That terminal was not built to handle airplanes that had over 300 passengers. At Christmas and Thanksgivings it was particularly bad, hot, stuffy, very crowded.
But it was cheap.
That terminal and People Express airlines did last very long. The new terminal came in, I think, the early 80s.

JFK's no picnic either.
I once spent the first night of my British family vacation sleeping on the floor in JFK. And it wasn't the floor once you get through security, it was the floor of the public bit prior to that, filled with 'interesting' people. To make things even better, I had to spend the entire next day there waiting for my 9pm flight, unwashed and unloved. By the time I got to Paris, I was so jetlagged and exhausted that I inadvertently cleaned my teeth with the handsoap in the bathroom. I actually thought there were toothpaste machines in the men's room. I'm still not sure why.
