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....

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.

Cute pregnant lady was sitting a row ahead and across from me on the flight here, and was totally trying to hide the wallpaper on her laptop that she set up for her son to watch "Toy Story 3."

The wallpaper was, of course, a huge photo of a greenhouse filled with marijuana plants.

I declined to comment.

On a _very_ related note, check out the comments for Playmobil's Security Check Point set.

Somehow managed to get from Stansted to Dublin yesterday before everything went haywire. Getting back home from Dublin Airport was an adventure though.

stansted was really peaceful and nice yday, most flights went from there i think, tho i heard belfast had a prob.

i can't get on my sister's ferry from cairnryan to larne but i booked one about an hour later from stranraer to belfast. hopefully meet sis and her family in belfast and head down to dublin with them. could have been a lot worse overall, though missed a big meetup with loads of old friends in dublin tonight.

I'm outside an airport! I went through security to get coffee and back out to smoke. Two hours early for flight.

Very important to be early. I have a bad track record with making it onto the plane.
