Because I travel frequently and usually total traveling time is never less than 22 hours. I needed to find a way to make these horrendous 22 hours ( if not more ) fly by. The way my journey is broken is simple. I board a plane in USA heading towards a European country. The country in europe depends on the plane ticket i buy (which is usually at last minute). So far ive been to
Charles De Gaul in France,
Amsterdam Schiphol in Holland, both
London Heathrow and
London Gatwick in the United Kingdom,
Aeropuerto de Barcelona in Spain,
Frankfurt Airport in Germany and
Zürich Aiport in Switzerland.
My favorite airport is Aeropuerto de Bacelona,Spaniards are cool. The prettiest lookin airport would have to be Charles De Gaul in Paris, France. Amsterdam Schipol is the funkyest.
I check
this site before visiting new airports.
According to
cnn.com, The World's Best Airport Lounges for 2004:
- Cathay Pacific
- Emirates
- Gulf Air
- Malaysia Airlines
- Qantas
- SAS Scandinavian Airlines
- Virgin Atlantic
- Asiana Airlines
- British Airways
- South African Airways
But nothing comes close to Abu Dhabi International Airport -AUH-. Did you know it was designed by Aeroports de Paris and was finished in 1980. It was designed to resemble an Oasis in the desert which would be surrounded by both greenery and sand. The theme was trying to represent an Oasis.

Its 4:20am, my flight is in 12 hours and 20 mins. I usually stay up a whole day before the flight. This way im so exhausted ill sleep for at least 5 hours. Thats pretty much the journey from the States to some European country. This way I wake up convienently in the transit airport.
I have noticed two common emotions when coming bach home. The first half of the journey is spent spinning between the frustration of a 23 hour journey and the bliss soon to come true. The latter half of the journey (arrival at transit airport). Here everything changes to excitement and planning. Listing everything that needs to be accomplished. Sometimes only alBaasha can cure an injured soul. Right Mr.Cage ?
