Fun things to do at the airport ....

[SAdler]

...when your flight is delayed.

 

OK. I think this is definitely a mutually beneficial topic for escorts and clients alike.

 

Ya know when you're sitting at the airport surrounded by grumpy unhappy people? You forgot a book even half worth reading? Not a SINGLE cu.... ok well that guy that walked by was nerdishly cute ... but yeah ... just BORED.

 

What DO you do? Anyone have input on what would be fun and amusing to do that might even scare the locals?

 

I'll start ...

(Did I mention this flight was to the conservative mid west?)

Where are you?If it is at LAX there are plenty of places to find some fun!

[jawjateck]

Fun....oh yeah. Amusing....prolly not. Scary.....definitely no. What am I talking about? Atlanta Hartsfield Airport, September, Concourse B restroom, 30 something studly Delta employee. I did him. }( First and only time I have ever done something like that so public, but ohhhhhhhhhh what a rush! :9

 

I may never experience that again in my life, but at least there was that one time.....

I spend many hours in airports and I find that looking for places to smoke fills up the time nicely.

Twice at O'Hare while changing planes on red eye flights. (United and American terminals.) Those handicap stalls are rather roomy.

 

They don't call it the "friendly skies" for nothing. :9

O'Hare has been good to me too. Perhaps that was you?

Atlanta is the only airport I know of with smoking rooms. All the others you have to go outside then come back through security. I always buy a DVD to play on my trusty laptop.

ROFLMAO!!!

 

Ever make the SFO to IAD via ORD run in the last three years?

 

Which reminds of the sky waitress, uh excuse me - I mean male flight attendant, with a serious foot fetish. I never had so much free liquor outside of first class before in my life. :+

>Atlanta is the only airport I know of with smoking rooms.

 

You might be surprised.

 

Vegas used to have them. I've seen them at some terminals at SFO (and was TOTALLY surprised!). The interesting thing there was they had a smoking lounge but you couldn't buy cigarettes anywhere in the terminal.

 

Little Rock airport used to allow smoking in bars. I haven't been in Florida recently, but most of the airports there had smoking areas in the terminals. (Can't make the old folks go outside!) Palm Springs airport doesn't have a smoking lounge, as such, but they have a large outside area (and a putting green!) between security and the terminal where smoking is allowed.

 

O'Hare used to have a cigar bar in Terminal B. It was rarely used by cigar smokers, but cigarette smokers kept the place full.

 

One by one they're being closed down, for sure. But they're still out there.

[OneFinger]

When I travel alone I usually have at least 2 recent publications of The Advocate or the local gay newspaper. I've met some very interesting people and had some great experiences when other gays have approached me after seeing me reading the publications.

 

I also travel with my laptop and usually carry at least one "gay friendly" DVD with me. I actually watched Latter-Days on one flight and the cute guy next to me was stealing several glances during the intimate moments. }(

When I'm about to be cooped up in an enclosed space with complete strangers, I generally want to be the most non-descript person in the mix. (Unless one of them is cute.) The LAST thing I want to do is anything to draw attention to myself. Should anything bad happen in-flight, I don't want Paranoid Paul pointing fingers at me when the air marshals take over.

 

I do often have DVDs ready to play in the laptop. OneF mentioned LATTER DAYS. That has travelled with me. Also EATING OUT.

 

But if I get a delay, I'm also out the door for a smoke. After a delayed flight into Denver caused me to miss my connecting flight to O'Hare, the customer service lady offered a flight into Midway instead. I didn't have a car waiting at O'Hare so Midway was fine, and it departed out of the terminal with a smoking bar. The lady chuckled that I was enjoying the re-route ENTIRELY too much! LOL

[+ friendofsheila]

Fun? Airports? Mutually exclusive, to my mind.

 

The best I could manage was killing time if I didn't have a book. Exercise works for me, but if you don't want the silly stares from bloated Midwesterners while doing crunches, walking all the way over to the United Terminal at ORD (Chicago/O'Hare: I love using airport jargon!) was good exercise, plus I got to see that funky neon thing when I got there.

 

If you're looking to make friends with the kiddies, balloon animals are ALWAYS a hit, though I admit I haven't tried it yet in an airport.

 

But it sounds like you want to have some fun watching feathers ruffle. I agree with the "controversial DVD" suggestions, like HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH or PARIS IS BURNING. Does INTERNATIONAL MALE or an underwear company have a catalog on disc? Anybody put a gay pride parade or drag show on DVD?

 

How about doing yoga and showing off your cat-like "flexibility"?

 

Or if you wanna fit into the Midwestern oeuvre, how 'bout getting some slouch at a bar half-drunk and having a belching contest?

Vegas still at least as of July have smoking areas still inside the airport. I was surpirsed to see one at the new termanal for Alaska.

I try my hardest not to try to atrack attn to myself when traveling. More times then not I am stopped for some extra screaning like checking my bag for bomb residue as well as my shoes. That is why now when traveling I check just about everything I can in. But to occupy myself one prob can find me sleeping next to gate since I usually stay up all night in fear of missing my flight, which has almost happend thankfuly only once. Maybe tell more on that horrific ordeal later.

 

Hugs,

Believe it or not, there are some nice people out there to whom it is fairly fun to talk. Not every time, and not every body, but ... So I always wear my T-shirt, hot red, that say, "Don't worry. I forgot your name, too." It makes a great ice breaker since most people have been in that position.

Please refrain from sterotyping Midwesterners as "bloated." As a very in-shape resident of the midwest, I find the comment more than inappropriate. I have traveled to every area of the US, and there are plenty of "bloated" people everywhere. I don't think the midwest has a greater percentage than anywhere else--maybe less. Benn to Orlando or DC recently?

[Bilbo]

For that matter, please refrain from calling anyone "bloated" until some of us around here are gauche enough to use the word "aenemic." }(
