I haven't traveled the whole world, but I have seen a lot of it. I've seen some nice airports and some pretty disastrous ones. Changi International Airport in Singapore is by far the best airport I've visited. And I'm not just saying that because I live here. This place is just amazing! Not only do they offer tons of amenities (including a swimming pool, Hard Rock Cafe and verrrry reasonably-priced massages), but the place is just gorgeous!
There are beautiful flowers and plants. The decor is really pretty, but appropriate for an airport. The furniture, the lighting, everything. It's just really a wonderful airport to visit.
On this trip, I also spent some time at the airport in Moscow, Russia. I seriously felt like I was standing in some bread line. It was very Communist feeling. The walls were grey and the floors matched. There was nothing to decorate the airport. I began to worry that every line I had to enter ended in a firing squad.
I also had a layover in Houston. You'd think in America that we'd have some darned good airports. Apparently Houston didn't get the memo. That airport sucks. That's all I'm going to say about that.
One of my favorite things about coming home is putting my tired feet into these little foot massagers for my free tootsie massage! Plus, when I go back through Immigration, the people are so much nicer than those I have to deal with in some of the other countries. Singapore has definitely done this right. When they welcome people to their country, they understand that a visitor's first impression of their country is of the airport. No wonder people love it here!
