I had a connecting flight through Philly in May of 06. It was horrendous. We were travelling to Hartford and on both the initial and return flight, they changed the gates once while people were already boarding the flight and the other at the very last minute. That airport is huge and it was an odyssey to say the least. I swore that I would never fly through there again.
Kinda funny that both times they put us on the international concourse.
Imagine...venice, rome, Milan, London, New Orleans....<g> Then again, we have been known to look like Venice.
