Wow, the taxi driver must have been happy. The last time I did a brisk walk all the way to the domestic terminal and it took all of ten minutes.

Yeah, kind of, if you are talking about the top Scandics, but I would say there are more design elements than even in a top Scandic.

That room must have the best view of the apron. Sounds like a nice room, too. I've stayed in two different exec rooms (and one regular room) and none had a sauna.

I had the same experience the time I actually had the possibility to have breakfast there as it starts at 7 am in the lounge (6 am downstairs). Some staff mentioned that they are planning to have something small available before 6 am in the future as a lot of customers check out very early.
