I like airports. I imply beloved airports. I like airport literature & bookshops too. Studying and shopping for books with some Starbucks & Dunkin Donuts.

They represented a sense of journey with new experiences and probability encounters with strangers from all around the world!

Even airport lounges, with their plush seating, cozy nooks, and serene ambiance, provide a singular alternative for singles/{couples} to unwind and join whereas awaiting their flights. Take about romance.

Nonetheless, because the years have passed by and the world has develop into a smaller place, airports can generally lose their romantic attraction, changed by a way of lethargy and weariness.

Ready round at layovers, checking in, strolling to departure gates that are without end altering or coping with delayed or cancelled flights ain’t so romantic anymore!

It’s fatigue and torpid!

Why do I really feel that? Right here’s why –

The Trendy Journey Expertise

Is it simply me? Or has one thing modified drastically? Possibly I’ve already seen the world and never a lot excites me anymore. The fashionable journey expertise ain’t interesting no extra. Speeding to e-book flights with promotions and high quality of airways in addition to firms are happening the drain. It ain’t what it was anymore!

Over Commercialization & Overcrowding

Trendy journey expertise are over commercialized, overexaggerated. You see nothing however crowds in all places : Overcrowding! Each restaurant, bookshop and locations at airport are all the time crowded.

Everybody on their god rattling smartphones both texting, speaking or doing senseless scrolling. Social media overexaggerates journey too. Tik Toks, Instagram reels and YouTube movies displaying how simple and in style fashionable journey is.

Completely, boring! Nobody talks to one another on planes or airports anymore! Why?

Spontaneity Goes Out The Window

I really feel spontaneity is misplaced. Possibly it’s due to expertise. Persons are disconnected from one another. Zombies!

When was the final time I had a dialog with somebody new on a airplane? Hmmmm….I feel it was nearly a few years in the past!

To not point out, individuals are turning into aggressive and impolite lately! Pushing, pulling, screaming, speaking loudly on planes, not taking into consideration it’s a shared public area. I can’t tolerate that.

Everyone seems to be so impatient! Discuss getting off the airplane! They rush to the exit doorways, they activate their smartphones method earlier than the security sign goes off. They rush for all the things!

What extra can I say?

What do you assume?

Will airports at some point develop into romantic once more?
