i'm in an airport

Whenever this thread is updated, and I'm myself in an airport, my eternal hope is that I might be able to look across the concourse and wave

Love from Brussels

omg if I saw u in an airport I wd bolt across the concourse and eagerly embrace u

not in an airport rn

wish i was in an airport rn bcz that means i wd be flying far far away

love that feeling even though i really hate airports

Feeling rather let down by Tegel, not sure why I thought it would have been some massive, unyielding Gilliamesque place, it's kinda toy irl.

I'm about to sleep in an airport. The Gatwick Yotel. It promises to be cramped. But in a nice way, like Cub Scout camping.

was in JFK last night, transfer from a domestic to an international flight; worst airport I've ever been in and I've been in some airports. Useful signage nonexistent and the food prices were hilarious.

Most insane queues I've ever seen at SYD this morning, taken me 90 minutes of non-stop cattleherding from door of airport to door of plane

stayed up all night & slept 5 hours the two previous though, hopefully will be unconscious before we break clouds

I"m going from SEA to ORD today and the airport is full of DOTA 2 fans (plus one guy in an Evil Genius shirt, could have been a player) and tweens in Taylor Swift t-shirts (her show was in Seattle last night). Pretty crazy to see so many young kids who had traveled to Seattle for entertainment.

LAX wifi as shitful as ever

welcome again to our shores, sic!

JFK has six terminals, each separate and distinct, which were built at different times and vary widely in quality and appeal. You may have gotten a bad one.

Terminal 5 (JetBlue + some Aer Lingus flights) is the nicest.

We landed at terminal 4 but had to get to terminal 1 and there were no signs on how to do that. The only way we knew we were even in terminal 4 was that we asked, and we also had to line up and ask to find out where our connection would be leaving from. Ultimately we had to take a bus, leave security, go through some other building (where the pizza vendors were helpful at least in directing us), then go outside, turn left (still no helpful signs) and then finally see a terminal 1 sign at yet another building. That terminal was ugly and had $9 gözleme but at least it was where we needed to be. It was great.

And to boot, we finally got our luggage today, 9 days after leaving JFK.

Sounds like a nightmare

Both NYC airports are circles of hell iirc (and I spent about 5 hours in LGA the other week.) For my money you really should drive to Newark. Or Idlewild ffs, which frankly is on the LIRR so sign me up.

we flew out of terminal 8 I'd rather terminal disease tbpfh

When I think of JFK I think of io with fervent love. She rescued me from two potential nights in that place, fed and watered and entertained me. Hoping she gets stuck in Pearson or Billy Bishop soon so that I can return the favour.

is Billy Bishop the awesome one you'd have to row to rescue her from?

sup mh

the queue-ass bullshit delayed other passengers so much that I'd been asleep for an hour when we started taxiing btw

I have a respect for anyone who is already asleep by the time the plane takes off. Lady next to me did that early this year. She also had a dog that magically showed up when we landed, it was completely in stealth mode the whole flight.

international terrierist

my first time being dropped at LAX by a genial Uber dude rather than a crying girl

had to tell it to forget the wifi in order to post obv

this is some BULLSHIT every hot dog stand in O'Hare should be open at 5am, why do you think I flew through Chicago

def eat as much as you can at O'Hare, you may never get out

Well, same goes for Chicago as a whole.

this guys is really in an airport http://www.rollingstone.com/culture/features/ben-schlappig-airlines-fly-free-20150720

Literally the second thing I heard a Canadian say in YOW was "oh, eh."

was it in regards to a tim horton's coffee?

Had a whole 20 minutes in ORD this time, so got two hot dogs to make up for Thursday.

chilling in the Cathay Pacific first class lounge at SFO

it's under construction so there's just some bananas and mini-packets of chips

In a bus from the airport to home. At least they had beer at the airport.

Sea-Tac, 4am.

scene: Dublin airport, 5am, Saturday

young parents of toddlers. I mostly try to forbear from position of lol-i-got-nobody-pregnant privilege, but:

fled to the table next to me in the airport, literally landed down like a hurricane with two big fry ups for themselves. market value thirty quid. tray hadn't hit the table and she said right we have to go. toddler one looking at the food on the table and screaming, they got up and left. 45 seconds max. yerman grabbed a rasher off the plate to eat on the way. so they took two kids, fucked everyone off in the queue behind them, stressed themselves out, mithered the children with the sight of the food, left the whole lot on the table and ran off in a fluster immediately. this was in full knowledge of the time limit they were under in advance.

I was for vulturing, she said not.

last month had to demolish a lobster bisque in about 2 minutes but that's preposterous & u shd have wolfed down as much as you wanted, taken the disapproval

bet they had to wait 15 mins in a queue lol

twasnt a great fry tbf

ah fair

have personally awful memories of dublin airport, having consumed a genuinely poisonous 'steak sandwich' at a central dublin diner just beforehand, was burping phosgene every 3 minutes while trying to sleep, my just-married still freaking out our hotel room had a ghost in it (which is why we'd headed to sleep overnight at the airport), altogether the end of the honeymoon ended up lasting nearly 2 years then over n out

LAX, 8am. Fuuuuuuck having to leave the airport and go through empty security theatre nonsense twice before breakfast.

YYZ, 6pm. What a way to spend a birthday.
