    Atlanta Airport is so big since its a hub/connecting airport for most of the Eastern and Southern US. Also lots of flights to the Caribbean and central America have direct flights from Atlanta. Plus US citizens can travel to any of the territories like Puerto Rico or virgin islands without a passport.

    This was an interesting video. Even as an American, there is always more to learn about our wonderful country. Three things to note:
    1. No need to worry about gas stations. We're very good about posting signs when it will be a long distance to the next one, or a rest stop, etc.
    2. As mentiined in other comments, some airports are extremely large because they are hubs for airplane companies (Southeastern, Delta, etc. ), meaning all flights will travel through specific airports, depending on the destination. It actually often costs less to drive to a hub, then fly, rather than buy a ticket from a local airport.
    3. If you haven't already, you should do videos on our national parks. They're amazing!

    As a lifelong Utah resident, I can say that I-70 is littered with signs alerting drivers there is no fuel for a long time. It’s, in my opinion, the most beautiful highway in the state. You drive a two-lane highway through multiple mountain summits, past reservoirs, deserts, etc. Plus if you ever did have any issues, somebody would absolutely stop to help. I-70 is also a popular highway for connecting Utah to Northwestern Colorado, beyond scenic. Anyway, I’m bias but Utah is definitely the best state in the US.

      I had a plan when I was younger to basically circle the lower 48 counterclockwise and hit up a bunch of places I had always wanted to visit. I expected to drive most of the day, stop at specific locations, and complete the trip in one month. I ended up not doing it, and I'm kind of glad I didn't. It would have been brutal driving so much and I would not have had much time at every stop. Instead, I've just been going to many of those places on individual trips, flying there and back, over the course of many years.

    It looks like people have covered Atlanta Airport, so I'll just talk about Mill Ends Park. Yes that was a picture of the actual park. The site was meant for a light pole and was created in 1948, but no light pole was placed there. So a reporter with the Oregon Journal, which overlooks the site, planted a tree there and started calling it by that name in his column. The name caught on, and it was officially designated a park by the city in 1976.

I worked at Northwest Airlines & I had a long weekend before I started my first official week without being on probation or training, so I took my parents & my 2 year old son to the Precious Moments Chapel in Carthage. Because it was my first time non-reving, I didn't want to use the small plane to Joplin, so we flew in & out of KC & drove to Carthage & over to Branson & back to KC. I almost got stuck in KC & I would've been fired for not getting home for my shift the next day. My parents were going to stay with my son in KC overnight while I flew home - but a couple awesome employees with higher seniority heard the conversation & offered to wait so we could all get home together.

      You are correct except Constitutional rights are granted to anyone on U.S. soil. Visa or not.
      State and federal laws have granted rights that are not covered under the constitution.
      Ex. You don't lose your right to life if you don't have a visa. (Constitutional)

And last, the reason a large % or Americans don't have passports is that we only get 2 weeks of vacation normally. And flying overseas can easily take days that we want to use for vacation and not be on a 30-hour plane flight. It's just easier to go to a different state for vacation.

We drove from Virginia Beach, VA through some of the northern states across and eventually down to Palm Springs, California and back through the southern states. We sampled food from the local favorites, went to 5 different NHL (hockey) games, saw lots of beautiful countryside, met wonderful people along the way and visited family and good friends. We even reconnected with a 6th grade classmate that I hadn’t seen in over 46 years. (Facebook allows us all to remain close) We had such a great time we never turned on the radio in all of those miles of driving and we have SiriusXM radio. That’s our longest trip driving but we have traveled so much in the years we’ve been together and still aren’t anywhere close to seeing all there is to see of this gorgeous country. Where to next? Maybe Alaska next summer? Hm? Hope you come back over the pond. We’re in Ohio now. Lots to see here in middle America.

    Atlanta has one major airport which is a domestic hub and handles international flights. California is a state, has many large cities, which each have several airports. NYC has two major airports (JFK and La Guardia) plus Newark is nearby as well. So it's a combination of where the air traffic is coming from, where the major airlines have their hubs, and how many other airports are nearby.

      Exactly. This video's treatment of Kansas City, KS is unjust. Yes, the sports teams, riverboats, museums and most entertainment venues are found in Kansas City, Missouri but there is a Kansas City, Kansas that always seems to get left out.

    • @johnalden5821
      @johnalden5821 2 роки тому +4

      Correct. Just for any international viewers on here, Kansas and Missouri are neighboring states, and yes, Kansas City is right on the border. So the two Kansas Cities are right next to each other along the state line, effectively in the same metro area.

    • @flyawayprizm5530
      @flyawayprizm5530 2 роки тому +1

      Another fun fact: Kansas City and Kansas State were named after two separate things that happen to have the same name. Kansas City was named after the Kansas River, and Kansas State (which came after Kansas City was established) was named after the Kaw tribe, which the river was named after. So KC, MO came first, then Kansas, then KC, KS.

    On i70 there is signs saying no gas stops for the next 170 or so miles by the last turn off. So, there is a warning/notice.
    Alanta is also the home base of Delta, with a wicked amount of connection flights do to its proximity to the east cost. Logistically it makes sense...imo

    Atlanta's Airport is the main hub for connecting flights for the Southern/Eastern US. It's also home to Delta Airlines, which has its own terminal. It's not only the busiest in America, I believe it's the busiest in the world. It's just a main connecting hub for a lot of the world to stop, most people aren't coming to Atlanta to visit they just have a layover.

    The thing about Atlanta having the busiest airport is because one of the major US airlines, Delta, has its headquarters in Atlanta, & force travellers to go there to transfer flights. So, when I would fly down from Kansas City to Mobile, AL - which is pretty is to the south & east, I had to fly 1st to Atlanta - which is quite a bit to the east - to change planes to go there.

    15:00 I think if there's going to be a long stretch of road without a gas station, you'll usually see a road sign letting you know how far away the next gas station is. So, you have some warning. I remember seeing them on road trips through the southwest as a child. These signs can sometimes be seen in movies and TV shows to foreshadow a car running out of gas.
