I am on an air train. Flight leaves in 50 min. Will I make it? Probably, but I wish it was faster to get here.

JFK. On the plane now! Fuck a window seat for a 5.5 hour flight tho! Claustrophobia ahoy!

max, Sunday, 29 June 2008 14:21 (fifteen years ago) link

A window is far superior, fuck having people climb over you for 5 and a half hours.

Ed, Sunday, 29 June 2008 14:49 (fifteen years ago) link

A small price to pay, really.

Ned Raggett, Sunday, 29 June 2008 15:05 (fifteen years ago) link

There must be a poll in this.

Ed, Sunday, 29 June 2008 16:58 (fifteen years ago) link

no no...no people climbing over

Guys I was stuck with this dude who did not understand seat/space boundaries and also was asleep most of the time then there was turbulence with mandatory seatbelt time and I couldn't get up to pee for like 2 hours and now I'm in phx and it's a pretty shitty. airport. Ticket sez next leg is aisle heaven!

tehresa, Sunday, 29 June 2008 19:41 (fifteen years ago) link

now I'm in phx and it's a pretty shitty airport

AT LEAST IT'S NOT BARCADE

Lol tru but I almost went postal on the dude selling credit cards that wouldn't stop harassing me every time I walked by and then giggling about it with his coworker. Very professional. Joke's on you dude, I'm going to. Hawaii and you're in an airport selling credit cards.

i have 8 hours in the reykjavik airport! it is a decent airport, but not big. i ended up taking a really long walk around the parking lot in circles, pushing my luggage trolley and talking to myself while staring at a weird sculpture on top of a pile of rocks). then i discovered the free wireless. probably could've gone into the city and stored my stuff at the bus station, but i'm preparing for a summer of physical labor with EXTREME SLOTH.

Maria, Sunday, 29 June 2008 20:49 (fifteen years ago) link

8 hour layover in reijavik airport = trip to the blue lagoon, natural hot springs about half way to the town. You can rent everything, towels etc.

Ed, Sunday, 29 June 2008 20:59 (fifteen years ago) link

i heard that but i have nowhere to put my luggage, would have to unpack a 21-kilo backpack to find my swimsuit, and don't know where this blue lagoon IS. also, i'm really lazy, and haven't read my archaeological field manual like a good dig volunteer.

Maria, Sunday, 29 June 2008 22:26 (fifteen years ago) link

go ask someone what it took to get all that wood in the reykjavik airport!

Dealt with someone similar in Denver. A tool, of course.

I was in Phx's airport two days after tehresa, and yet it was not that bad. Wasn't GREAT but wasn't bad.

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 3 July 2008 18:53 (fifteen years ago) link

s1ocki, Thursday, 3 July 2008 19:22 (fifteen years ago) link

Draconian obsession with travel security still part of flight

Column from one of the industry mags sent to my company. Coins an interesting term: "security theater."

Zurich today. Rather suspicious swiss hip hop on the TVs in the bar here.

Ed, Thursday, 24 July 2008 17:57 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm in terminal three of Heathrow, waiting to fly to Addis Ababa. Excitement.

The Real Dirty Vicar, Saturday, 26 July 2008 19:06 (fifteen years ago) link

For a megasprawl, DEN is pretty nice. There was a bickering couple in the security line who were co-workers it seemed like. Everything they did was augmented with complaints, meeting unpreparedness, misplaced documents, etc. I wanted to shout "would you guys hurry up and have sex already!" at them.

Elvis Telecom, Thursday, 31 July 2008 23:32 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm going to be in an airport on Saturday night/Sunday morning, so if as many of you as possible can please also sit in an airport at the same time, I would appreciate it.
