The airport in Santa Maria, California.

Who likes to check-in 30 minutes before a flight departure? Who likes security lines that are less than 10 minutes long (if that)? Who likes airline agents that remember who you are? Then you wish you lived near this airport.

United Airlines Mileage Plus

My preferred airline, completely because of their mileage program.  You can game this one with debit cards, credit cards, and an online shopping mall.  And flights, of course!
