When People Looked Forward to Eating Airport Food
Believe it or not, Americans used to go to the airport just for eats and giggles.
Over three and a half million Americans will take to the skies this Thanksgiving, and I would feel confident in betting that very few are looking forward to it. Air travel these days is marked by delays, limited legroom, and unending, cookie-cutter air terminals that make New York look like Minneapolis look like Vienna look like LAX.
So would you believe me if I told you that people used to go to airports just to eat food? Just for fun?
