Baltimore Airport
I have been traveling a lot more than I want, in the recent weeks. And I happened to have a short layover at the BWI airport in Baltimore, yesterday. In general, airports tend to have extremely limited number of power outlets that can be accessed by travelers. I usually walk around all over the terminal, and end up sitting on the floor in some remote corner, to be able to charge my laptop. I also get forced to use my laptop's powersaver mode to conserve battery life, straining my eyes to see the dimly lit screen (and it is another big topic that Windows Vista drains batteries within minutes). Anyway, BWI was such a refreshing experience. It had these table-like structures all over the terminal, with 16 power outlets in each of them. And each of those tables had four USB power outlets as well! Pretty much each gate had one such table. My cell phone badly needed some juice and I was only too happy to be at BWI! I hope rest of the airports in the US (and abroad) learn from BWI!
