walking the tarmac

Filed under: — adrian @ 3:12 pm

I love walking the tarmac at airports to get to my plane. You get to do it a little bit at SJC, but most of the time I get to do is places like Mexico (CUN) or Zimbabwe (VFA). I feel like a pioneer of aviation when I’m walking across the tarmac to these great flying machines.

    Did you fly recently? What made you think of this?

    I kind of like walking out to my plane, but I don’t like what it implies – that I have to gate-check my carry-on. Most carry-on suitcases are too big for small planes that you can walk out to, so you have to gate-check them.

    I’ve never had to gate check a bag after walking the tarmac; I’ve walked the tarmac to 737s and 767s.

    I flew to Seattle for last weekend.
