Airports — Changi, Castellon, Templehof and more

The World

This week our topic is: drumroll please … airports. Good airports, bad airports, fun airports, airports that are a complete drag, airports that are remarkably small for the area they serve, the airport you never want to descend into again … ever and ghost airports, those big projects that politicians sometimes push with the promise of jobs – and that then just sit there idle.
