other exciting changes at the airport, like a new restaurant....
Boingo in 75 Airports
Boingo in 75 Airports
08/04/2004 11:42 AMBoingo partners with ICOA, expands to 75 airports: The battle for road
warriors hearts and minds starts and ends in the airport. Boingo now
has a roaming deal for all six of Icoa's airports, and 69 others
worldwide. The other day, I noted that SBC had signed up to resell
access at or operate service in many of the U.S. airports that offer
service. If they broker a few more deals, they could have the only
comprehensive airport service plan. A colleague of mine, a technology
writer who travels frequently, says he rarely sees people working on
laptops in airports. I don't know how that's possible, with the gate
areas full of laptop users before flights furtively plugged into
power. He's fallen in love with a Treo, which allowed him to skip
opening his laptop on a recent trip. I still wonder how many
applications people actually need. Does Blackberry's success show that
low-speed email is the primary application and that everything else is
a distant second? I doubt it every time I see a plane full of cramped
business people desperately typing away, reviewing Acrobat documents,
building PowerPoint presentations, running Excel spreadsheets, and
using proprietary software....
Why does Florida have so many airports?
Why does Florida have so many airports?
02/05/2005 10:02 PMFlorida has a fantastic network of airports, each of which comes
with a full complement of long runways, instrument approaches, gas
stations, maintenance shops, etc. It all makes sense until you
ask the question "Why would someone want to go from one town in
Florida to another?"
Town A: flat landscape, warm humid climate, strip malls,
Walmart, chain restaurants, gated communities.
Town B: flat landscape, warm humid climate, strip malls, Walmart,
chain restaurants, gated communities.
Why would a Floridian go through the trouble of moving from one
place to another?

Chilean versus American airports
Chilean versus American airports
02/01/2005 09:38 PMFlying from Santiago to Miami one is faced with some rather rude
shocks. The Santiago airport is gorgeous, full of glass and
light. Rents are obviously fairly low because every nook and
cranny of the airport is crammed with the kinds of shops that you'd
find in any Chilean business district. There is a full-service
pharmacy. There is a communications center where you can close
yourself into a private phone booth, make calls, and pay for them at
the end. There are Internet cafes. Miami, like most U.S.
airports, seems only to be able to support the $5 slice of pizza
store, the $5 magazine store, and the $5 coffee store. If you
want to make a phone call you do it from a noisy public space.
If you want to relax you pay $500/year to one of the airline
clubs. If you want Internet access, you're screwed. Most
of the spaces in Miami are bleak empty wastelands of concrete and/or
glass. In Santiago you feel like you're in a shopping mall where
occasionally a couple of hundred people leave en masse.
Oh yes... my feeble attempts to purchase Internet access for my
laptop in MIA and LGA have led me to the conclusion that the U.S. will
not, in the foreseeable future, have an 802.11 network with useful
coverage. So I've decided to buy an $80/month unlimited data PC
card from Verizon or Sprint. Anyone have experience with these
services? My tendency is to want to go with Verizon because (a)
they have the best coverage for voice calls, and (b) I think in the
D.C. area where my family lives, they offer some kind of
near-Broadband speeds on this service.

12/02/2003 12:19 AM It's rare that I recommend music, but I've recently decided that
Brian Eno's Music For Airports is some of the best background music

Free Wi-Fi is Trend at Small Airports
Free Wi-Fi is Trend at Small Airports
03/06/2004 01:49 AMUSA Today reports on a bunch of small airports that offer Wi-Fi for
free: Some of them, including Blue Grass Airport in Lexington, Ky.,
offer it for free because the airport is close enough to other
airports that it competes with them for business. When airfares are
comparable at any of the nearby airports, some customers may choose to
fly from Blue Grass because they can use the free Wi-Fi as they wait
for their flights to take off, says an airport spokesperson. The
network is pretty extensive too, covering enough area outside of the
terminals that fliers can use the network while sitting on the plane
on the tarmac during long delays. I was surprised to see how many
other small airports offer free Wi-Fi. Some of the airports cater to
business people from nearby big companies, such as the Tri-Cities
Regional Airport in Blountville, Tenn., which attracts workers from
Eastman Chemical Company. The article notes Pittsburgh as one of the
only big airports in the country with free Wi-Fi for all. Currently
there are so many different models for Wi-Fi at airports that it will
be interesting to see which work out in the future. We see airlines,
third parties, and airports hosting the service, which comes for free
or a fee....
