Best airport amenity: Wi-Fi or rocking chairs?

What with my appointment to see how the new make-your-own ice-cream machine works and the three hours I spent cooling my heels waiting for a friend’s flight to arrive, I ended up spending a lot of time at Boston Logan International Airport last week.

That was fine with me. The ice-cream was yummy. The Wi-Fi was free. And there were plenty of comfortable rocking chairs to sit in.

Most of the airport’s rocking chairs are plain white models, but a fair number of the chairs have been transformed into colorful works of art. Next week, there will be even more: the airport is having a reception to celebrate the addition of 19 new art-adorned rocking chairs to the fleet.
We’ve put in a request for photos, so stay tuned.

There are lots of rocking chairs at Lindbergh Field, the airport in San Diego! Most are near the Southwest ticket counter (Terminal 1) but there are also some inside Terminal 2 where you can watch the planes take off from. Also… they have free WiFi!
