An observation: Attention European and North American airports! Why can you not supply the mini-trolleys that many Asian airports have? Carry-on can get pretty heavy, especially when you have to walk several miles between the gates. LHR would be a perfect candidate.

Great report. I asked this once of an airport designer - short answer - carpets! Anywhere that is carpeted finds them difficult to use - thus AMS & HKG both have shiny floors. But airports like them, pax spend more in duty free when they don't have to carry it.
