I like the design and it is sometimes more convinient than Pudong Airport. Some old airports in China, even in major cities like Chengdu and old Guangzhou airport, even look like a crowded rail station. Fortunately, some of them have been rebuilt.
Airport is a venue for travellers to use as a transit point, convenience is paramount to the travellers.
When you compare PEK to O'Hare in Chicago which consists of 3 terminals, 9 concourses and the perimeter is over a mile wide. I perfer PEK over O'Hare in convenience.

Chicago O'Hare has flights taking off every 30 seconds compared to the 10 flights a day PEK deals with and STILL messes up. Now, what has design got to do with efficiency???
can you tell me which part of the airport made you so insatisfactory?
