Still not filling out the survey for my VPS-ATL flight. Still 44 minutes of air time in which not much happened in the plane cabin followed by 20+ minutes of 'find the gate' upon arrival. The reason no one returns surveys for that route is that it's usually utter boredom. (Okay, this time the fighter jets pilots were apparently trying to get their hours in before the New Year so civilian air at VPS had to work around their operations and we departed westward from the big runway rather than eastward like usual. Such is what passes for excitement at joint use facilities)
Do you really need to put up the 'All Runways Lead to Atlanta' banners up in ATL? Because the people in the Atlanta airport darn well know that because they're already there to see that all.

Isn't Russian Christmas also in January? Some people use that date as a guideline for when to remove a Christmas tree and decorations.

The “I’m Ready” button on the espresso machines in the SkyClub. I’ve already hit several buttons to get to that point. And I stupidly sit there waiting for my drink to be made time after time.

Many gates are only configured for certain aircraft types. Usually this is due to spacing issues with other gates.

So January 6th should be the day we open the gifts under the tree? And then remove the tree on the same day?
What about the trees from different countries in ATL F? Are they being removed on the date that would be appropriate for the culture they represent?

Regarding ATL F I cannot say anything, but at my family, we open the gifts on Christmas Eve, and remove the tree and decorations January 6th
