Pittsburgh International Airport after hours
Missing your connecting flight can be frustrating. Having an overnight layover can be annoying. But we all have two choices when airlines throw us a curveball: Mope or make the best of it. Ashley Klinger chose the latter when she was stuck in Pittsburgh International Airport overnight recently. With the help of a video camera, solitude and an epic amount of imagination, she turned an abandoned airport into her own personal playhouse.
Kudos to Ashley for channeling her creativity rather than anger during an extended layover. While we don't recommend that you kill your airport delays this way, we do suggest that you try to stay as positive as Ashley did. You're going to be waiting no matter what you do, so you might as well be in a good mood while you do it.

This was funny! Kudos to Ms. Klinger for making the most out of wet-floor cones and cafeteria trays to keep the night alive. But the video also point to the fact that even the larger international airports in the U.S. fail to compare against those abroad - esp. in Asia, the Middle East and even Europe. Our airports are old, boring and totally designed for boredom. Whenever I travel abroad, I actually look forward to longer airport layovers so that I could spend more time taking in the wonderful sights and sampling some of the experiences they have on offer. Not here!

Thanks for the suggested activities; there is a creative streak in being stuck at the airport overnight, and i was glad to see your creative juices flowing forth. I am sure, if we all thought about it, we might come up with some other activities to pass the time away...
Thanks again!!!
