As I had about three hours before I could check-in, more on which later, I needed to find a seat and, more importantly, a power point. This looked like an appropriate place to visit and it was hardly packed with customers. Anyway, my main requirement from a venue is not ambience, cuisine or human connection, but electricity.
Thank you to AI for removing my thumb from this image…… Here are the food options, although I knew that I had a lounge visit coming up and so I resisted the temptation. Not that I was tempted anyway at those prices.
This was the limit of my purchase, a £3 can of Fanta, which I considered acceptable since I remained fully charged in terms of devices, I was in an air conditioned area and I had wifi. The online reviews for this place are pretty terrible, as they often are in airports, where everyone is tired, financially wounded and only one problem away from writing an angry one-star review. But I was content enough, which by airport standards is dangerously close to praise.
