Hundreds of airports around the world use Twitter as one of their tools to share news and updates with the public.
The social media site is in flux (to say the least) at the moment. But for now, it’s still a great way to find out at a glance what some of our favorite airports are up to.
On Monday, for example, we learned:
Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) has installed a cool, new eyeglass-cleaning machine;
Miami International Airport (MIA) has a new art exhibit;
Santa is scheduled to stop in at Indianapolis International Airport (IND) on November 26;
Tampa Executive Airport (VDF) hosted a cool fly-in;
Two former Detroit Red Wings spent time at Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW) signing hockey pucks and meeting fans;
An oh-so-cute member airport therapy dog posed for harvest-time photos at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX);
And, as part of its 60th anniversary year, Dulles International Airport (IAD), reminded us of the mobile lounges that were used to transport passengers between the terminals and their planes.
Introducing our newest, fun gadget in the terminal 👓💦

Take a calming pause with our latest exhibition, “PRESENT” by Ian Patrick O’Connor. Using large-format film photography, the artist creates images using the urban environment, color, & space, to evoke an overall sense of well-being. #ArtsatMIA

#ICYMI Coke and the Detroit Red Wings teamed up to bring smiles to the faces of DTW customers and staff. Two former Red Wings players, Drew Miller and Jason Woolley, talked to fans and even signed notebooks and hockey pucks. Thank you @Coke & @DetroitRedWings! pic.twitter.com/zYPc3dqeMT

The first of its kind! We introduced the Mobile Lounge to the world when we opened in 1962. Back then, they were used to transport passengers between the Main Terminal and their aircraft which were parked out on a jet ramp. #Dulles60 pic.twitter.com/UpIPPGLWYq
