Stuck at The Airport: Friday Round-Up

Happy Friday. Here are some of the airport adventures we spotted on Twitter this week at airports around the country.

This afternoon, #PHLAirport had our monthly visit from the @phillyzoo who brought a couple friends for passengers and employees to meet and learn about. Today, the Zoo brought Hardy, a skink, Meg, a tortoise and Finn, a Velveteen Lop rabbit. Thanks for another great visit! pic.twitter.com/VigUnM2wPC

The Tuskegee Airmen were the first Black civilians to train at Alabama’s Tuskegee Air Field and later serve in World War II. Stop by SDF’s The Sky’s the Limit Exhibit in the Airside Rotunda to see more heroes of Black Achievement in Aviation. #FlyLouisville #blackhistorymonth pic.twitter.com/5ltOesPkaW

And in New Orleans

Mardi Gras is underway in New Orleans and on Thursday, Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) hosted its 10th annual Krewe de Louis Parade in the terminal.

We’re waiting for the airport’s official video of the event. But here are some of the tweets we spotted late Thursday. One included a local dancing group, the 610 Stompers, which joined the parade to welcome another dance troop, the Milwaukee Dancing Grannies.
