Airport amenities to cheer for
A handful of airports have book exchange corners. But Chattanooga Airport has the “Skylib” – a little shop filled with new and used books with payment on the honor system. Sales benefit the Chattanooga Public Library.
A great idea!!!!
Wow! Another great airport amenity! #StuckatTheAirport https://t.co/8L2pwD5wEr

A salad bar at the airport
This salad bar is at JetBlue’s Terminal 5 at JFK Airport. Another great – and healthy – idea!
Hat tip to Athletic-Minded Traveler.
