The airport you think is overrated, the airport you like, the airport you love, the airport you feel yourself in, the airport you need to visit — play the airport game with us (and feel free to tweet us your answers!).
The new Air France lounge at CDG T2F is beautiful, as can be CDG …when it works (you'll probably need to taxi on a country drive to get there haha).
The new lounges at JFK T8, the new of BA in New York, feel like a success (and clever naming!).
The end of the 747 production line triggers memories for the both of us (a crazy typhoon for Alex, a cramped Combi for Paul, a sense of place for both).
A renewed joie de vivre by flying Air France (is Transavia the legitimate child of KLM though?).
Flying the OG Norwegian, riding the good old Acela, and a French guillotine in the 777.
