Life in an Airport

The thing I hate most about travelling is the time you have to spend in
airports. In this new world of copious security measures, two to three hours
in an airport per flight is about the minimum you can expect. If your
destination is the United States, expect more time in security lines. So I
suppose I should be happy that I mostly fly around lower-security Southeast
Asia.

The Manila airport is pathetic. The food is awful, there's nowhere to jack
into the internet, and there are no decent bookstores. Even the seats are
uncomfortable. The Simgapore airport is far better. The HK airport is also
pretty nice, except that it's so big you need a rail to get to some parts of
it.
