It's so baffling that even american cities often don't make it feasible to get to and from the airport by public transport, that's the one destination where no one in their right mind is ever going to drive themselves to.

In an even slightly sane world all american cities would at the very least have usable bus services for getting to and from the airport, if nothing else.

It's worse where I live. Our (VERY major) airport was designed deliberately to prevent any public transit, and fought legislation to build public transit access for decades.
