Which airport has the best USO? I have been all over the US and I have to say I have a few in the running. Las Vegas USO and the Freedom Center (I know it is not USO) at Detroit were great to us.

I actually like DFW, they are kind and generous, they always bring home to the Armed Forces abroad, while in transit.

I totally agree with DFW, but I have to give a shout out to the dedicated crew at O'Hare (Chicago). I spent so many nights there that last winter, they knew me by name.

As much as I hate the airport in Philadelphia, the USO isn't bad. The people are friendly and if you're a smoker you can lock your stuff up so you don't have to go through so much hassle at security.

Same with Charlotte. It's not very big but the people are friendly and there's someplace to stow your things so you don't have to go through the hassle. And in Charlotte, if you're travelling in uniform (which won't be often anymore), they'll let you go through the TSA Pre-Check lane instead of the normal security checkpoint.

So far, it's been Denver. Nice sized with lots of amenities. Atlanta comes up second.

I thought Denver has a nice one Baltimore was good. Didn't know Vegas had one, probably because that was the home destination for me and I was coming back through Baltimore and was more concerned with going home.

Dulles Airport and DFW are my favorites.

I hear there is a new USO opening at John Wayne Airport in Orange County, CA
