Further comments on travel

Airports also suck.

The F concourse of the Philadelphia airport provides insufficient and extremely uncomfortable seating for stranded passengers. Also no electrical outlets for recharging batteries -- saw several forlorn travelers wandering with cords bereft, searching, searching, searching for a place to connect them.

I shall post more gripes as they become available. I'm sure you all are thrilled by the prospect.

Hate Philadelphia airport...but mostly because I usually need to be on the other end of it in five minutes or less. Detriot's new terminal with the tram train is quite nice. Pittsburgh, of course, has a very nice terminal as far as people movers, food, layout...but it lacks power for laptops.

I have done the dash from one end to the other. One time, I did it twice, having found the regional connection I'd been supposed to take cancelled, and my ticket transferred to another flight north'ard -- on the same plane I had just departed....

And from thence to a bus, for my final destination. As noted before, we hates airlines, we hates them forever.
