you can upgrade all the airports you want, its the population that needs to be upgraded through education.

The people visiting these airports are mostly illiterate and destroy the atmosphere and the joy of landing in your home country.

The security agencies wake up after the airport is made and destroy it in the name of security by blocking off lanes and creating bottle necks and obviously lets not forget VIP LANE 1 AND VIP LANE 2.
