...not since the Pan Am days....
Thought this was interesting. Was in Koh Samui and I think it was Bangkok Airways but check it out!! There's no "bridge" connecting the plane to the gate, they put you in a bus and send you out to the runway to hop on the plane!! INTERESTING experience, haven't done that since I was a little kid myself, sure brought back memories. By the way, the whole Koh Samui airport IS interesting. The airport's open as in open air, as in there's no buildings, it's all little shelter huts here and there acting as terminals, checkpoints and lounges, every the laidback! Now, that's what you call COOL!!! hehehehe... You can even see the planes landing right in right of your eyes, and I'm not exergerating. I wished I had some pics to prove but thing is, the pics didn't turn out good. It was taken at night and the plane was really too fast to be capture by my little point and shoot camera. Too bad...probably next time..;)
