Amid all the bad news about air travel, it’s nice to hear someone striking a positive note. In this Globe and Mail story, Ivor Tossell argues that we just might be seeing a new golden age in airport design. The proof? Flashy new terminals in New York, Beijing, Dubai, London—and Winnipeg. (Maybe it’s not so Scranton-esque after all.)

This is true; I love the new fresh airports. The buzz with all people on the move to travel somewhere, the anticipation in the air together with airport glamour… What can be better!? :)
