Use the Affiliations filters to find friends, or make friends with folks from the same university, same employer, branch of the military, etc. There is also an Airport Shops & Restaurants list, in the Tools section, to find the best places to shop or eat while waiting to board your next flight. Other tools include weather info and airport delay status.

Yes, go play with a computer ; that's better than enjoying your surroundings for sure. " This is the dumbest article I’ve ever read! Bring a book, get a portable DVD player, Gameboy, a life. People watch. Give me a break. Like that’s not the creepiest thing I’ve ever heard."

People watching is actually a lot of fun, and can be quite amusing. However, I usually just settle for my dvd player, the internet, or games on my iPhone, like Swordfish, Jetset and Can you see me now. There’s a difference between people watcher and people-stalker.

People watch? Study arrival/departure screens? Make FRIENDS? This is the dumbest article I've ever read! Bring a book, get a portable DVD player, Gameboy, a life. People watch. Give me a break. Like that's not the creepiest thing I've ever heard. "Be touched by the reunions of families at arrivals" - good plan, skulk around and grin at people. See how long you can stare at someone before they call security. Are you people kidding? People watch? Study arrival/departure screens? Make FRIENDS? This is the dumbest article I’ve ever read!

When I traveled to NY, my return flight had a 8-hour delay and I had to spend the whole night on a very uncomfortable bench in New York JFK airport, :-( That wasn't the best part of my trip, but I enjoyed listening people talking about things like 9/11 and their every day life in NY.
