Are there airports you’re biased against? (1 Viewer)

I know this is random, I was just reminded of this. Just accept it.
For me La Guardia Airport in NYC. I’ve been there once, but I did not enjoy it. It was actually a layover, I got up early to catch the flight there. When we landed I was like oh rain yippee, but didn’t think much of it. It started to get worse weather wise though, and although we boarded the second flight I was taking they brought us back to La Guardia to first fix something, and then rescheduled it to the following morning at 8 AM because of weather. I had already been up since 6 AM or so, and because the delay was weather related it meant no accommodations for me (if it’s the flights fault they would have to pay for accommodations). My parents tried to convince me to find a hotel to spend the night at but the airport ones were full (I think basically all the flights got pushed back. Except one apparently that I heard people saying stuff like “hope they make it”). The food situation was also terrible, in some US states chain food places in airports lethally cant charge you more inside an airport than outside stores of that chain. Well either New York isn’t one of them or there were no chain resurgent store things because she best deal I found was about $13 for a small sandwhich (may even have been half of a normal sized sandwich). I looked at that and was like ill just starve. I then stayed up all night because a)I couldn’t sleep and b)I would be scared of my stuff being stolen if I did sleep so I didn’t try to even get some rest. I did finally get out of there 8 AM the next day. Haven’t been back since which I am relatively thankful for.

Have you watched the movie "The Terminal?"

But yeah that sucks, I wouldn't have slept either

Interesting. I am glad my stay was shorter than that And glad that if things like that occurred that that’s probably not the protocol that would be followed.

Yeah the Dubai airport is definitely not a problem size wise I’ll probably never fly to the Abu Dhabi one realistically but it sucks that it’s not really up to par.

I haven't been to the Dubai one but yeah avoid abu dhabi if you can!!! Singapore, doha and dubai are probably the connection airports that my family and I usually aim for when travelling to Europe

The Dubai one is a lot of walking to get from the plane through customs (at least in my case it was). I didn’t spend all that much time in the airport though, I did probably spend more time on the way back but I don’t really remember that part all too well.

Ahhh icic. I don't usually mind standing in security/customs so may I'll like dubai lol

the one time I had a layover in London Heathrow I almost missed my flight. It's huge, the distance between the terminals I went was super long and the security was very stressful.

 

[cocomelon]

i had a connection from abu dhabi airport and i was just hoping no one there found out i was a fruity rainbow coloured boy 🤭

 

[eclipsoul]

no because i've never been on one

 

[Selfmate]

Probably Abu Dhabi airport (not Dubai). For such a connection/Eithad hub you'd expect it to be cleaner and bigger


Australian border control fucking sucks. The racial profiling is such a big issue like it's always the Asians getting stopped. The rules are also too strict imo and the little cards we get when landing in Australia, though more of an inconvenience, are very outdated.

my friend I know why they (security do it) and it's also not helpful when chinese mothers and such bring in shit like hard boiled eggs lol (albeit small minority)

it's also the reason that made my wife get an Australian passport

I actually think I worked on cards for some time over that night. I think it was before cards were released yet though (like 90% sure)

Oh I meant not when you’re stuck at the airport, watch the terminal and other movies while you’re stuck in bed

Oh I see. I am actually not in bed, I’m sitting on a couch though I lowkey want to move. But details. I don’t have headphones though so movies will have to be later if ever

It’s true, I don’t like movies all that much for a variety of reasons With some exceptions

I feel like the chance you’d manage to recommend a movie that I actually like would be slim

What do you like I was gonna recommend an animated movie for all ages that has insightful social commentary, animals, is funny, has lots of plot twists and cartoon/comic book action, and is cute
