Happy about - happy with / at the airport - to the airport

I'm sorry about posting questions in two different topics (as I posted another one a couple of minutes ago), moderators may merge them if they think they should.

I have some trouble with these sentences:

Would you rahter say,

We didn't get at the airport on time

We didn't get to the airport in time

or

We didn't get on the airport on time?

We may be late, it depends on whether the train is delayed

or

We could be late, it depends on if the train is delayed?

Also, would you say you're not happy about or happy with a tour?
