does anyone know the drop-off protocol at manchester aiport these days? last time i was there we had to go through a multistory carpark, which was free for stays less than 15 mins?

anyone know if this has all changed yet again?

I'm in an airport near a man with a phone who sounds like jabba hands except he's not funny or charming with his endless explanations about the fog that is making fools of us all.

there's a fortress in terminal 2 - go there!

dyªº (dyao), Friday, 23 April 2010 15:06 (fourteen years ago) link

bah, already gone through security and in the plaza-y bit. Is there at least some sort of shitty Irish theme pub here?

circle git (S-), Friday, 23 April 2010 15:09 (fourteen years ago) link

aww all the electronics stores in terminal 1 are pretty overpriced iirc. you can buy cheap booze at the duty free and uncork it, there are no open container laws.

dyªº (dyao), Friday, 23 April 2010 15:10 (fourteen years ago) link

hmm I could put it into an empty burger king cup for that extra touch of class.

circle git (S-), Friday, 23 April 2010 15:17 (fourteen years ago) link

lol if you want a place to buy cheap water and other drug store type goods see if you can find the mannings in that terminal (dunno if it's still there).

dyªº (dyao), Friday, 23 April 2010 15:19 (fourteen years ago) link

will take a wander. goodbye battery.

There's something about the even smaller ones for personal planes too, like Fullerton's, right next to the train tracks:

aw man, one of my favorite memories from being in LA last summer was gazing westward as the sun was setting after getting off at the burbank airport metrolink stop and being like "man, this is SO PRETTY and i gotta come back soon"

THERE WAS NOTHING THERE!!!!!!!!!

Also they have a terminal 1, terminal 2, and an 'international' terminal otherwise known as "terminal I" which is clearly just called that to intentionally misdirect people?????

American Airlines is starting flights from NYC JFK to Tokyo Haneda, and I can't wait.... Anything is better than that fucking 2 hour bus ride from Narita to Shibuya....

phil-two, Monday, 26 July 2010 02:51 (thirteen years ago) link

i'm in a jfk jetblue terminal. for some reason i just spent $30 on a mushroom/fontina/ham pizza and a double maker's & ginger at one of the hoity-toity new restaurants.

DâM-EdnA-FunK (get bent), Monday, 26 July 2010 17:48 (thirteen years ago) link

I've been eating my way around the state for 5+ days and the hottest green chile was in my omelette in the airport just now.

Best vacation ever, sorry it's almost over.

6 1/2 hours in Paphos airport, like the set of THX, this illusion augmented by red-faced, Hackett wearing, cockney Donald Pleasance motherfuckers waddling around like lost children.

BUR might have the Talking Heads as background music, but LGB is still my choice for sleepy vintage Southern California airports.

The people sitting one row over are talking about atheism vs. deism, urban planning, and Ursula K. LeGuin.

Waiting in stansted to go to glasgow where I'll then travel to Stranraer with my sister, her husband and my nephews and get the ferry to Belfast. That'll be on Thursday, my flight to Dublin from London was cancelled today. Awful transport hassle but at least I have a way home, in theory!

I see what this is (Local Garda), Tuesday, 21 December 2010 20:54 (thirteen years ago) link

Yeah, my friend's flight to London was cancelled yesterday and they weren't offering to re-book it until after Christmas, so she said fuck it and cancelled and bought ANOTHER ticket on another airline. Hopes to be leaving in a few days.
