When he's not tying his body into knots, Padmassana is a bit
of a globetrotter on the quiet. Here are his nominations for best and
worst airports:

Best:

1 Dubai: great facilities, clean, everything is so cheap and it is
the only airport where you see Rolls Royce's and Ferraris
inside!

2 Hong Kong: well organised, lots to do if your plane is
delayed

3 Zurich: the escalators are constructed in such a way that you
can wheel your trolley onto them and the wheels lock into place!

4 Tokyo: clean, well organised, the conveyor belt has traffic
lights so not too much luggage is loaded on to it at any one time, so
that bags don't fall off!

5 Moscow: the best for entertainment value – you have to guess
which gate your plane leaves from and race there! (The Beetle would
like to add this also happened to her at San Jose in Costa Rica
airport too!)

Padmassana's worst airports included Luxor for bribery (the
Beetle also experienced this after a diving holiday in the Red Sea.
At Hurgahada the man who x-rayed luggage wanted a tip/bribe, as did
the man who checked you in, as did the man who lifted your bags on to
the conveyor belt to the storage place prior to the plane arriving),
Goa where the conveyor belt chews your luggage, Islamabad where the
customs official ate Padmassana's Milka bars, Guilin, in China,
where the runway lights were switched off on final approach.
Scary!!
