"whoever built that place was a genius!" (Yvonne)
"at first sight of this airport I realized I'm going to die of bordem in here" (?)
"If anyone comes across the black leather recliner chair, don't sit on it because it will beep continuously and VERY loudly until you get off it again." (?)
"I don't know if this airport won a design award but if I spent more than 4 hours here it would drive me insane." (Shan)

What you can look forward to:


WTF is this?

  • boring

  • now windows
  • floor to ceiling mosaics to take photos of
  • less than appetizing food
  • overpriced shops
  • uncomfortable seating with armrests
  • crowded
  • long lines even for coffee

"I slept at this airport between a connecting flight between Sydney and London, flying Etihad. It wasn't too bad, although the airport is so small. I went to sleep on the floor as all the chairs were taken (and it didn't look like anyone was getting up). There was an English family sitting next to me, so as a single female, I didn't feel unsafe, but I had to sleep with my arm around my luggage, which was a little uncomfortable.
The airport is really really small, so even though I had three hours to waste, I covered it all in 5 minutes. Nothing exciting about this place, and the green ceramic ceiling is a bit weird and will drive you crazy after 10 minutes."
