While not being able to buy a cup of Starbucks coffee may seem like a really valid reason to spend $143 million (Of course, it’s not all our money; most of it is free government money) to build a new airport, it would be even better if something could be done to convince United Airlines the fifth-largest airport in the state deserves service not canceled on a regular basis due to fictional weather problems, fictional mechanical problems and the lack of crews to fly the planes.
If that were to be possible, stranded passengers at the airport might not miss having a Starbucks.
